It's funny, though, did a Netstar run a while back and we had 26 C63BSC's coming to the US (as you noted), and at the same time there were 100 SLSC's.

As mentioned above, "what break in".... drive the car hard up and down the rpm range and dont let the rpms stick in the high range for too long... The car needs a "hard break in" and it will be a better performer in the long run vs if you baby it IMHO. 7 AMG's later I have done nothing but hard break ins...

2013 C63 Black Series
I wish I could get a final officialy count of how many C63 Black Series for 2013 in U.S. Not total of the two year run, etc., but specifically 2013. I realize that they are essentially an overrun, etc...but my window sticker says 2013, its a 2013 VIN, and they charged me a little more, so I would like to know my "rarity" benefit in terms of last year, etc. Anyone have a MBUSA contact that could confirm?

Exactly 26 2013 US spec models. I'm 100% certain of this as I have a Netstar screenshot proving it. And I've confirmed it as recently as this past weekend. I won't be posting that screenshot here, as I'm sure it's a violation of something somewhere to do so, and I happen to like my good relationship with MBUSA.

C63 BS, GLA45
I get my oil changed at the diff service. Perfect timing to get it done after hard break-in.
