MB S63 AMG Coupe Edition 1 and McLaren 650S
Hey Nexlogic,
Congratulations, give her a name and enjoy her in good health.
I think your dealer is probably right. You are likely the first consumer to get a delivery in the US. A MB representative told me that they released all of the C63 BS's on the East Coast to dealers on March 27th. I suspect that is the same date this car was released on the West Coast.
Please post some impressions.
In the meanwhile, I have 3 questions:
-I assume the break in mileage is 1,000 miles. What is recommended during this period?
-Are all of the vents around the wheels functional? I recall reading that the vents behind the rear wheels were cosmetic.
-I don't recall seeking the orange side markers on European versions of this car. Do you think they can be removed?
My Mars Red car is on a truck headed towards my dealer.

Thank you! Yes, it's 1,000 miles. You shouldn't exceed 85mph.
The vents around the wheels appear to be cosmetic only.
Yes, I believe you can remove the orange side markers - I plan on getting them painted soon. I am not sure if they're the same ones from the regular C63 as I know sellers sell replacement side markers.
Can't wait for your Mars Red! Be sure to take photos!

Wow, the C63BS looks amazing! Do you live anywhere near Irvine? If you do, you should bring her to Cars and Coffee. I bet your car looks even better in person!
I don't think I've seen the new Virage on the road yet. I think it is one of the most beautiful cars out there. So what made you buy two ultra exclusive cars in 2012?

The Virage is an absolute stunner - better than the Italia in my honest opinion. I've been meaning to bring it to Cars & Coffee. Maybe sometime after the BS. Here are recent photos.
