Your dealer should be able to order it: A204 899 0686 ($490) is the part number for the fitted cover without aero package (A204 899 0786 with aero).

Some dealers have built in "inflated prices" in their computer systems. So even though your dealer quotes you a price at MSRP- it's higher than MBUSA's true MSRP. Some dealers are more notorious for this price inflation than others and it really becomes apparent when you compare prices between two different dealers.
You have a few choices though. You can either ask your local dealer to match the price of the less expensive dealer, or buy from the less expensive dealer and have it shipped (work free shipping into the deal if you can).
You can also attempt to get 10% off of parts with an MB Club America membership.

you guys are paying way too much....The c63 coupe cover from MB will fit the BS without aero, think I payed just under 300 after tax, fits the car fine, no issues. I'm fairly sure it's the kimberly clark noah material.

I would have done the same, too. In fact, I went even more cheapo by going to Wallyworld and got the lowest priced generic one for my car. But I only use it when I have to park outside for an extended period of time in the airport parking lot when on vacation.

OEM, specific to the BS... I paid around $400-something at my dealer. To those talking about over paying, to each their own of course. But to me, spending an extra $100 for the "right" car cover for the model on a $100k+ car doesnt hurt too much. And I am stingy....

Will take a pic from back, but I dont have the wing, so not sure if that helps you. They have two different part numbers, for with/without wing.

The C63 coupe and the BS have very similar dimensions, with the BS having wider tracks but no more than a inch or two. I wouldn't be surprised if the cover that MB is selling "specifically" for the BS is really the same cover they sell for the coupe....but of course with the BS markup. Now if you have the aero, obviously a different cover is needed. In fact, the cover in post 5 looks identical from the front to the one I have...which is the regular coupe cover.
As for the cover itself, I did quite a bit of searching....but there just weren't hardly any available to fit the coupe...let alone a BS. So just got the MB coupe cover, which is made with Noah fabric, more than good enough for me since I keep it in the garage anyhow.
LOL....I understand being stingy and suffer from some OCD myself....especially about the car. But I'd be pissed if I spent extra for basically the same cover.....even if only a $100.

That's pretty sick, but I'd only use that cover in my own garage. Otherwise, if I were like otakki, I'd go with an unbranded one for public places. Otherwise, it's like painting a bulls-eye on your car.

Exactly! The main thing is to divert attention away, not the other way around. Especially with a car cover outside already drawing attention, you definitely don't want all that logos outside. That's just asking for trouble. There is also a high possibility that nice cover would get stolen outside.

I never found covers to be all that useful tbh. Never really understood the use of one. Maybe some of you guys can enlighten me on why it's useful. I also fear the process of puttingthecover on and off may cause micro scars to the paint.

For a car that is not a daily driver, I think its a must indoors. At least my garages have always gotten very dusty. For my Black Series, it sits in there during the week, or at least several days at a time. A thin layer of dust collects on the perfect/detailed paint. With an indoor dust car cover, it keeps that layer off. That's pretty much how/why I have used them on my all my previous weekend type cars.

I've always used the Dust-Stop indoor car covers myself. Like stated above my cars always get really dusty sitting in the garage and this keeps that off. Plus it does an excellent job of stopping door dings and scratches from hitting it.

Speaking of that, it annoyed me to no end everytime when I returned to the middle of an empty parking lot to find another car parked next to mine instead of skipping a space. Sometimes, I wonder if the driver of the next car ever think why I intentionally parked far and away from the stores and all other cars to be at a wide open location without cars next to me. Dude, at least leave a space in between...there were lots of spaces around.
