This is great information, thank you.
I know this is an older thread, but I am trying to sort out how many cars were built like mine. It is 1 of 16 Diamond White, but is does NOT have the Aero Package or carbon mirrors. It does have the rear seat option and the polished wheels (most seem to have the black wheels). I cannot imagine there are many. I've never seen another, and for all I know it is the only one. Is there any way to verify the specs, please?
Thank you. I absolutely love my car. It is my second Black Series, and I was telling a friend at dinner last night that (to me) it is absolute perfection.
Hey guys, I know this is a rather late response to this thread, but I feel this is something important and you all may find it useful as well. I’ve created a very detailed registry for the C63 Black Series, as well as for the 507 Edition (coupe/sedan) on VINWiki and I’ve come to found out that the US production numbers are inaccurate. There are well over 100 US models currently for the C63 BS and actually more Mars Red examples than we think - apparently the claim is there is only 6 examples. I’ve managed to count 9. I’m still day by day updating it, but I figured I’d all let you know. If you own a C63 BS, your VIN number is more than likely in my registry.

One thing you might want to take into consideration is that several Canadian cars have made their way into the US which may account for the additional numbers now in the US. You can tell by running the VIN's on all 7 of your Mars Red Examples and you can tell the country it was shipped to originally. I usually use lastvin.com but anything should show you, on the datacard it should say Order Location: CANADA or USA. Also option Code 701L should say Canada if it came from Canada and option 285B should be there which says Airbag Label English/French for Canada. I suspect imported cars may account for some of the discrepancy.

Can you also tell me how to get to your Registry, I found you and followed on VIN WIKI and I see you adding stuff to a list called C63 Black Series Registry but when I search lists that can't be found, I search Registry and scanned through all results and it doesn't seem to be public or something.

@roadkillrob Yep, I ran every single VIN that had a United States order location on lastvin. That’s how I got most, if not all of my information to begin with honestly lol. A lot more United States models than we think though.

@roadkillrob That’s weird. I’m not too sure. You should be able to click on the registry and see all the VIN’s, pictures and information on them. Are you using your phone or laptop? If you’re using your laptop, try using your phone and downloading the app and you’ll probably be able to see it. If you’re using your phone, you can use your laptop and just access VINwiki from the IE. Either or works, or you might just have to refresh.

Mind you, I haven’t finished with the registry yet because I believe there are more of them to uncover, but I figured I’d go ahead and update you all with information I’ve managed to derive. I know these cars very well and know exactly what to search for when running their VIN’s, so I know what I’m telling you is 100% accurate. The claim was that there are 16 Diamond White, 6 Mars Red, 26 Obsidian Black, 11 Iridium Silver, 4 Allanite Grey, and 11 Night Black.
Here’s what I’ve found:
19 - Iridium Silver
14 - Magno Night Black
7 - Magno Allanite Grey
10 - Mars Red
37 - Obsidian Black
26 - Diamond White
Feel free to question my accuracy on this, but nothing comes close to as accurate as running a VIN.

FYI works mint on my desktop, no idea why phone won't search and find the list.

One thing notable is the numbers from the beginning of this thread are for 2012 only (the first 75 cars) 2013 cars (25 more) are not included in those numbers, so if we consider all 100 cars there should be more of each color but no numbers where ever released that I have seen for 2013 by color.
I took a look at the Magno Allanite Gray cars as it is what I have and it is a short list, I tried a while back and have been updating in a thread here but I only got to about half the cars in the US (doing it in VIN Wiki is a way better idea!), I also came up with 6 Magno Allanite Gray 2012's in the US, so our numbers are in agreement and disagree with the original numbers in this thread. https://mbworld.org/forums/c63-amg-w...-registry.html
Here is what I found from your list of cars that are Magno Allanite Gray.
10 Cars in your list, but 3 are non US cars (2 from Canada one from Sweden) so that leaves 7 cars - 6 are 2012's and one is a 2013 MY.
So from the original list of 2012 cars where 4 are supposed to be Magno Allanite Gray, it appears there are 6 in 2012 and 1 in 2013 for a grand total of 7/100 cars in that color.WDDGJ7HB4CF901356 - 2012

these data might not contradict with one another, as one (the claim) suggests sold-new through MBUSA, perhaps the numbers you've came across through vins are those that have came into, or once appeared, in the states?
i've never registered on vinwiki before, but doing so just now, i'm surprised to see the vin of mine having some records on this platform (added by you 7mo. ago too onto this registry), but mine wasn't sold through MBUSA nor Canada when new, not an American spec; to be included in your list is a bit of an inaccuracy wouldn't it?

@1JDM911 I get your confusion, and to answer your question.. when you decode your VIN on lastvin does it come up with a United States allocation? Also, my apologies. The registry I created doesn’t have only United States specs, so I only counted what was from the United States. Also, not to sound like a smart alec or anything, but if the car was first allocated to the United States first, then somewhere else, wouldn’t it still be considered a US spec?

No worries, it's not your fault, there are others that have spotted/posted about this particular vehicle on Vinwiki as it seems, years prior to being added onto your list.
When decoding my vin, it does not show as an US-allocation vehicle; in fact, the car has never reached its allocation destination, but that's another story for another day, a Vinwiki-worthy story if I must go into detail.
If the car was first allocated to the states, then it would've had the same amber reflectors on front bumper, panoramic glass roof, gloss-black antenna instead of matte black, matte black wing stands (B26) instead of gloss black, reclinable comfort seats, etc. as the rest of the BS here on this continent - but it does not.
What's up everyone? I'm still skeptical about whether or not I've truly finished the registry, but I figured I'd update you all on what I've managed to find and give a comprehensive and detailed breakdown of all the C63 Black Series models in the USA and CANADA, ranging from 2012 - 2013 along with their VIN's, specs, and numbers. There are a total of ~131 total examples that have been allocated to the USA, some being written off. I've heard there were about ~30 models give or take that were allocated to Canada, about 5 of those supposedly being apart of the Ducati Edition from what I've heard; I've managed to find about 40 total examples with 5 of those 40 examples being the Ducati Edition. They're all in this excel document I've took the time to type up and look over. Feel free to take a peak at it and let me know what you think. I will begin adding the other countries later on, but I felt I would prioritize the North American examples first to get it out of the way. Link is below.
Here's a simple breakdown:
USA MY2012 - 101 Examples
USA MY2013 - 30 Examples
... matte black wing stands (B26) instead of gloss black, ...
My car has also matte black wing stands (allocated arabian emirates)!
I've seen a lot of vehicles in Europe and can't pinpoint exactly when it was matt and when it was glossy!

do you have panoramic glass roof or slick-top roof? usually with the panoramic roof specs (comfort seats, too), both antenna & wing stands are in matte black, and they are gloss black with the slick-top roof (non-reclinable bucket seats).
of course, there are exceptions, but the wing stands finish should match your antenna finish.
I have a slick-top roof. In europe it´s hard to find a panoramic glass roof ;-) My antenna
& wing stands are in matte black. I have original non reclinable buckets seats.

yup, and your wing stands are matte black just like your antenna, that matches the combos that I've came across, with or without panoramic glass roof.
below is an example, of the gloss-black wing stands with matching gloss-black antenna, on an Euro Spec slick-top; very close spec to mine, besides being a RHD:
