Hahaha It's a Black Diamond CTS-V Coupe with a blacked out grill and then I'll stick a Borla cat-back exhaust on it.

Haha CaliSun, I was looking at the same exact car online the other day

The CTS-V is an absolute amazing beast, and the Black Diamond edition is gorgeous.

I've finally let go of the idea of a backup plan, if I have to wait another month for what I really want then so be it.

(what I _really_ want now is the new CLS63, but not at $110,000+, I'll wait 3 years and pickup a used one up for $80k)

Great minds think alike! I'm willing to wait too since the C63 Coupe really is my first choice but I had a buyer too good to pass up on my SUV and the lease on my Z4 ends beginning of February. If the build gets pushed back any further then there is a real risk I won't have a car for an unknown length of time.

Looks like production is delayed for 09/07. Delivery 10/22.

Wow, I'm gone for few days and there is a ton of traffic on the thread. I am missing out on some good posts..

CaliSun, what is your backup? Just wondering, because if they push mine back one more time, I might be in the same boat with you.

Sorry to hear about your delay, I'm not surprised at this point though. It seems they are having real issues with the C63 Coupe production.

The general pattern is all the US C63's have been delayed, the coupes more than the sedans. Some super lucky people might get them earlier but there seemed to be parts issues and other things causing the delays.

It seems if you've ordered a coupe keep a close eye on your build date and your fingers crossed.

My bad. I must have missed it. Man that thing screams off the start. It was like out of the video frame as fast as it took off.. I like the Caddy's, but hopefully the 63 works for the both of us.

Up until 2 weeks ago production date was 08/12. Status was technical freeze. I checked again on Monday and they told the order is frozen but for production 09/07. They believe it is the cf mirrors...we'll see. Good luck to all. I will update as soon as I hear anything new.

Are the delays just with the Performance Package? Mine is supposed to be in California on the 26th of this month. They said it already shipped but I Just sent an email to see if it is still on track. I didn't have the P31 package but pretty much everything else.

It might be just the P31 but it is hard to tell because each time I talk to them it is a different story. If yours shipped then you are lucky!! Make sure to post pictures when you get it.

Yeah new pictures would be so much fun. Regarding the order I was always told it is the cf and designo that delay the car. There was never a mention the pp.

Thats tomorrow! It would arrive at port here near LA I believe.

After following this thread and speaking with my dealer, I was under the impression everyone's build was pushed back to September +, let us know if your dealer confirms your car is off the water and on the ground tomorrow.
(if you believe him)

I'm hoping it is... but will be surprised.

This thread is like a dysfunctional support group for impatient dudes waiting for their C63's.

MB USA has updated their website to show the 2012 C300 sedans and have added the configurator for those. Even on those base models it says leather seats aren't available yet.

I emailed the dealer today and they double checked the date. It has been delayed.... Until the 27th of this month. That is one day I didn't want to have to wait. It will still take 10-14 days after that to make it to the dealer if there aren't any hang ups.

I'm sure its correct. They emailed me the VIN a few weeks ago. It was finished in July. They said they would check the status again Saturday to confirm it made it. I will list my options to maybe narrow down why mine has arrived and others have been delayed.

650 Arctic White
221 Black Leather
SPC Special Order (Rear Power Sunshade)
S34 Command 6-disc package
120 AMG illuminated door seals
16p Germany priority unit launch ???
244 Designo package (red / Black)
293 Rear Side Airbags
319 Lighting package
736 Black ash wood trim
795 AMG wheels
889 Keyless Go
993 Lane Tracking Package

That is it.

2012 C63 Coupe P31
Canadian orders

Hey Everyone, new to the site. I've got the 63 coupe ordered as well but I'm having a hard time with my dealer finding the options I want ( if they're available in Canada ) because of them having so few details and the way our order packages are set up. Anyone else who ordered one in Canada have this prob?
Example would be my coupe has the DP upgrade but the dealer told me that we don't get the "race start" selection option in Canada. He also didn't think we get the glass roof either
Any info from someone else who has ordered in canad would be appreciated since the US order options allow more individual option choices instead of full packages just to get one option.
Thanks
