Xenon's definitely don't come standard everywhere. When purchasing my C63, it had the option; which of course I took. But never the less, I'd say most countries that don't offer them as standard, list them as options mainly because the extra change they can pull out of your wallet.

I don't see why people are shocked to see that the cars sometimes only come standard with halogens.

My brothers got 2011 C63PP and that had xenons standard. Was at the dealer again today he should have a answer for me by tomorrow morning about when I can get my car. I put the ball in there court told em if I don't have the car by Friday they can shove it and we will be canceling my sister in laws C200 Cdi.

Question for c63bs owners, do your cars come out with spare wheels. Going through mine today and noticed no spare.
