Possibly it is awaiting certification as the first example of a new model to arrive in Canada?

Your dealer not know?

I have been told once again, that the first cars that have arrived are not going to be delivered until april/may as there is a delay in production. They will not release these cars in the port as other BS owners are being bumped on delivery dates, case in point, on Monday they advised me that now my delivery date is end of june begining of July, so I went from April, to may now this crap, going to reconsider this car as this aggrevates the heck out of me. Here in canada, the summers are not long at all, so getting a car for July really sucks.

Mine is at the port in Germany waiting to be loaded, guess it didn't make it on today's departure, next possible one (on W&W lines at least) looks to be the 29th.

I just got my VIN number and my dealer said delivery would be 05/07/12. My car was ordered with carbon and aero packs in January.

Apparently there are several Black Series C63's sitting at the Baltimore docks. For reasons yet to be offered to the dealers, MB HQ has not authorized their release to be transported.

I cannot understand why MB wouldn't want payment for these cars earlier rather than later. Maybe it is targeting delivery to all dealers at approximately the same time and is waiting for a prescribed number to arrive from Germany.

My man right here has been saying the same thing over and over as to why there is a delay and he called it before it happened.

Maybe you guys should attempt to corroborate this with your dealers. Just a suggestion...

Hey rage2,

I was always counting on you for the first delivery.

I assume it will be loaded onto a train and should take 2-3 days. You may have your baby by next weekend.

Not to Calgary. The train will take at least 10 days.

It just arrive in Moncton and has been sitting there for 40 minutes.

I just received infromation from MB (US HQ) that the US C63BS's on the ground are being released to the dealers today. Mine will likely be at my dealer by Thursday or Friday of this week.

Gotta break open the piggy bank!

Congrats! I'm looking at the same timeframe, dealer just gave me the final price today, and expecting the car to arrive on the 30th.

Congrats, I had not seen a picture of a black one yet. Very sharp.

Please feel free to share any driving impressions.

A photo of the front with the orange markers would be helpful as well.

stef430,

Thanks for the pictures. I recognize the showroom. I probably know the salesperson you dealt with. He's a gentleman.

Any driving impressions would be great as well.
