The LSD does not appear to be included in the P31 Package in the states. You have to add it as a separate option for ~$2000. If you did not add it you do not have it. Look over your dealership paperwork or your window sticker and it should be shown. If not ask your sales person.
If you do not have a LSD check with James @ACGSD and I am sure he will be happy to help you out with a Quaife LSD. You should be able to get it installed for less than the factory option.

the Quaife is a much better option for the car then the factory LSD, i know may guys who paid for thisoption and are replacing it with the Quaife. this is the reason i did not order the P31 and LSD. this week im ordering the MHP headers, Tune, KW susp already on the way, Quaife, European airboxes with K&n's already on the way. Wheels and tires next. cant wait

I'll be setting up a post for all Upgrades, as I've spent many months prior to getting the car and after the car in deciding what options to get and what mods really work with the best results. As for the wheels thinking of Fiske p10's but not sure yet... Hope this will help others

c63 p/pack
If it does not have the LSD then it can not be available in the states. Like I said I built the car and added every option possible. I also just came from the mbusa website where I tried to build one again and I am 100% positive it is not an additional option available for the 2011.

Yes the P31 has the LSD just like the P30. The only differences is the + 30 hp that I can tell.
A quick note:
I took the car to Race Legal at Qualcomm stadium in San Diego and ran 1/8 mile. My best run was 7.9 at 94Mph but I am sure I could have done much better with better tires. The stock tires where spinning through 1 and 2nd and began to beast ahead at the top of 2nd. I am sure if I could stick i would have been running much different numbers. I ran it about 20 times half with sport and half with traction control off. I was averaging 8.1 @ 92 Mph in sport mode but got my best numbers with traction control off and babied it out of the hole. Reaction times were varied because I was trying to ease it out of the gate to reduce the spinning but averaged .750 with my best reaction time @ .509 ... Even the announcer was beggin me to get some slicks and run with the big dogs.

I agree that the LSD is not visible at mbusa.com when you build a car, but it is separate option from P31, and you need it...especially where it's wet (like PDX).

Have you gone back to the track? If so, any changes?
Also, did you get an LSD? If so, how do you like it?
