Fresh off the boat!

On the way to grab a bite and received a call from the dealer, 5 Long months of waiting and it's finally here. Im happy I got to it before they could drill my plate holes. Only a little longer now!

I noticed this one came with continentals, I wonder how they will be compared to the pzeros.

"Mods" in the near future will be clear or smoked sidemarker, tint, 3M clear or Full Matte black vinyl and then more when it's broken in.

The continentals are awesome. I went for a spirited drive last night in the hills(wet) and they gripped up awesome!

congrats, guess you're going to have to change your user name now?

as for the conti's, you should have a longer tread life comparatively.

I received my optional 19s with Conti's and have been extremely happy with them.

I will most likely stick with this rubber but go to 265 or even 275 in the rear to further improve traction.

Yes there is a carbon fiber spoiler but it's underneath the white shipping film. The spoiler came part of the P31 package.

I want to pick it up soon as possible haha. Back in Dec the salesman and I worked with 5000 down. Last week he heard that MBFinancial want 13500. (wasnt so smart with my credit early 20's) So I either trade in my c230 and get the c63 next week, or wait another month and a half to save the rest of the down payment

It sounds like a no brainer but we just gave back my wifes lease and I wanted to give her my c230 since it's paid off. If i trade it I could only afford something like a matrix or something like that so I would feel guilty lol. Decisions decisions.

Congrats on your newest arrival.

Just curious, since you caught the dealer before they drilled on you, how do you plan to address the license plate holes?

Enjoy

Well I'm just going to go with just rear plates until I get warned or pulled over. By then I will figure out a less invasive way of mounting the fronts. I have seen a few solutions on this site.

Cheapo! You bought cardboard floors to save some pennies for the P31 cost...

Aha.
All jokes aside, nice looking car! The red calipers surely stand out with the car in black.
Seems the wife enjoys it too, in the second picture!

Congrats.

Haha no that cardboard floor was a custom amg designo option +$3500. Also I've seen a lot of white cars on here with black accents. I did a white vinyl wrap of the hood, roof and trunk covering the spoiler. lol
