LOL White, red, tan, carbon fiber, black. Too bad it isn't Christmas time...they could have at least marketed it as a candy cane filled with chocolate and caramel.
Man the original color looks much better with that interior color. If the dealer is willing to take off the wrap with the condition that if the paint underneath is good, you will buy.
I can also see the dealer not wanting to remove it and find damage that will have to come out of their pocket to fix, so quite the dilemma. As a buyer though, I think you can work it with them. If they do not want to at all, I would probably stay away from it at that point.
Also, call me biased, but if it turns out the paint underneath is nice and you choose to remove he wrap, you'll find yourself with the best color there is for the C63.

Red is nice but I think quartz blue or designo grey are some of the top ones.
Forgot to add this, but when I asked the dealership to remove the wrap in person even with a check for the full amount in hand they still wouldn't do it. Their idea was buy the car first and then will take the wrap off for obvious reasons probably, because some rich idiot will probably come along and buy the car without a second look anyways. But now that its sat on the lot for two more weeks they may be eager to get rid of the car by now.
Wow, with a check in hand and still wouldn't do it. That just tells you they don't want to assume any responsibilities if something is wrong underneath. It's a hard place to be cause the dealer is most likely selling "as is" and you as the consumer, just want a little more confirmation. From their reaction though, I would walk away from that.
That would be odd for a MB branded dealer to wrap a car, but I guess anything is possible now a days.
Yeah, I haven't seen it at a mercedes dealership (then again I don't frequent the dealer), but I have been to a BMW dealership that had wrapped cars for sale on their showroom floor. I thought it was odd too, but wraps are hip nowadays I guess and everyone wants a matte car. I will say the wrapped cars there were spectacular jobs. Super clean.
What I'm surprised more of is that they're willing to sell a used car with mods of the such. Usually cars like that just go straight to auction.
I actually drove to look at car the day before I bought mine. Something felt wrong, the wrap looked good actually, had 3 owners and a broken driver side handle and lack of information from the dealer about the paint under. It drove great and interior is spotless but something about selling the car wrapped did not feel right.
