Obsidian Black and Seat questions/size.
Was hoping somebody could post a pic if they have this coloured car? I have searched and can only find the regular non Metallic Black exterior colour. I was planning on ordering it, but wanted to see what it looked like, the dealer doesnt have this colour on the lot to look at first. Thanks for any help.

Many thanks for those pics. Great looking car. Was wondering about another quick question, how tight are the seats in the front? Im 6'5 and big, ive sat in regular C classes but not the 63. How is the headroom and side room? I use to drive an Audi TT and had lots of room in that for comparison.

where is it the tightest? In the waist? Or in the upper shoulders? Do the seats "break in" after awhile?
I am worried its like my buddies old Porsche 968, his seats were to small and I couldnt fit in them.

The seats fit well everywhere but my upper back, right behind my lats. Even with the side bolsters "opened" as far as they can go it is a bit uncomfortable. It is not terrible, but it is noticeable.

do you have much mileage on your car? Do the seats "improve" with time? Or remain about the same?

Agreed. I'm 5'10", 205#, 36" waist with broad shoulders and you notice the bolsters. I feel them right on my rib cage and under my arms.
