Just closed the deal tonight for a 2012 c63 coupe. MSRP was $69,755, paid $65,500. The car just arrived at the port and will be delivered late next week. Car isn't crazy with options, I didn't order it, just got lucky that one was arriving with the options I wanted.
- Magnetite Black
- Black MB Tex/DINAMICA
- S32 COMAND single disc w/ hard drive and voice control
- Illuminated door sills
- Rearview camera
- Lighting Package
- Aluminum Trim
- Keyless Go
- Lane Tracking Package
Super excited. Was going to pull the trigger on one in NJ yesterday with almost the same options but in Iridium Silver and Burl Walnut Trim which was a bit of a deal breaker. Silver really showed off the lines and curves on the car in my opinion, but wood trim wasn't great.

thanks.

they are among the best that I have worked with. I spoke and met with a salesman named Giovanni. He was very nice and helpful and seemed to be willing to do pretty much anything to get a deal for me. His sales manager is Salvino who is also great. They just didn't have the cars I wanted.
otherwise try Manhattan Mercedes. not much of a discount from what i see but they are fair on trade ins. I was going to get my e63s from them but it had to be ordered as they weren't getting any in (odd since they are a factory store). They were going to give me 105K for my '11 g55 w/ 9K, which was among the best I got. if you go there, ask for Christopher Grotto. nice guy, attentive and very knowledgeable.
i can tell you to avoid Prestige Mercedes in Paramus. i called them to see if they had a c63 coupe. they said yes, but in order to test drive the car, i had to put down a "significant deposit on the vehicle". i thought that was crazy. it's not like i'm looking at a Ferrari Enzo.
i don't love ray catena in edison either, the one in union is okay, but the sales manager there is not a nice guy.

the car that i was going to pull the trigger on was at Benzel Busch in Englewood, NJ. They have the silver one there still and a black one with the red/black interior at the port that can be delivered in 3 days to the dealership if sold. The MSRP on that was a little over $70K, but it had the burl walnut.

Asking for a deposit before test driving the vehicle is ridiculous!
Thanks!

The one at benzel had 60 miles as of Monday night, it's been on 10 test drives according to the salesman and the price that they offered me was $65K down from the ballpark of $69,500
I was optimistic too when I went on cars.com to check inventory in the area, but it appears they haven't updated their inventory because they seem to be all gone. It appears there are enough cars at the port ready for delivery, but from what I was told, if they aren't sold, they take a while to deliver the cars to the dealerships. Not sure why that is, c63 is a hot car so I don't see why they wouldn't rush to keep them in inventory on the lots.
Good luck!

went to talk to my dealer today. they didnt have a sedan but they had a coupe with multimedia pack, lane tracking, keyless go and aluminum trim.
mrsp was 66.7k, got it down to 62k. good price?
I am just a little upset that they dont have the lighting package. also something i found weird was that instead of the 6.3 amg badging on the right side of the car, it has Blue Efficiency? Does anyone else have that? I thought the C63 isnt "blue efficiency" since it only gets 19mpg and you have to pay gas tax haha

Blue tech badges on an AMG? They are really pushing the limits of going green. Tell them just take them off and replace them with 6.3 badges as you got the real deal and aren't a poser. Price seems fair for a new coupe as there is no used inventory to work them off against.

On my order sheet, code 265 is for "delete elegance badging". I asked about this line item and it was to remove the blue efficiency badges and to replace them with the c63 badges.

just gives me a bad feeling about this car.
its also really weird that one side has blue efficiency and one side has 6.3 amg
feel like there might be something sketchy going on :S

going to go back and take another look at the black coupe. just wanted to bump also to see if anyone got blue efficiency badges on their AMG
ALSO: The car I am looking at doesnt have the lighting package...which bothers me alot. Is it possible to buy the HID units later and install them?

batman...I mean natman... c63's are not B.E. so that badge does not belong - period!
If you want the lightning package, get it now... don't try to do conversions as it will never be the same. The lightning package is the way to go don't kid yourself.

I need to get a car relatively soonI dont know if it would be as easy for you to talk to them to get you the conquest discount since you want the edition 1 but its worth a try.

well guys i finally put a deposit down for my car today. They have to transport it from Colorado to Pennsylvania so I'll have to wait for another week or so.
Finally found one with a lighting package.
other options include CF trim, s32, lane tracking, keyless go, amg door sills and parktronic. at least thats all i can remember.
mrsp 68.4, got the price down to 63.5
