2023 C 43 Order Guide

@alexasa - I need to confirm this week about most likely what the reality is for many of us. The good news is that the holidays move fast and it'll be Q1 before we know it ![Smilie](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/smile.gif)
Also, I've been 'cross-shopping' in the midst of this process and snagged one of the first G87 M2 allocations. Decisions decisions - the resale factor is very tempting for M2, but I also thought I vowed off BMW's a long time ago![smash](https://mbworld.org/forums/images/smilies/smashfreak.gif)

call me an internet sleuth - in reality just searching tags for these type of posts.
Here's aero on magno selenite for sale

Weird time for manufacturing. I'm just imagining a different part supplier being used from month to month, etc. and how many QC issues that can/will create. Hoping that the car is at least mechanically sound when it does arrive.

EQE was just priced at $76,000 by MBUSA, same car starts at Euro 70,200 in Germany. In France is sells for euro 80,000 but it includes 20% VAT tax. There could of course be a difference in standard equipment, but still it tells you something.
Also, the European pricing was set some time back when Euro was much stronger.

At the risk of sounding stupid…..this is my first Merc and while I’m Polar White, I’m curious, are these the same colors as Patagonia and Starling? Color choice is already so hard! Both of those are fire colors. I hope all who ordered those colors get their vehicle through the build prior to the stop date.

starling = spectral
lunar blue is that dark purple/blue color
I could see Patagonia being subbed in for cardinal and maybe denim blue for lunar. Would love to see alpine grey offered (currently reserved for c63 only it seems). It's slightly abnormal to make the change in the first MY - but almost always additional colors will be added at some point.
I love denim blue - if that were offered later I'd have serious color envy

Just realized the configurators on both German and US sites have changed .... the visualization looks more real and maybe a bit more detailed. It's easier to see the studio package now. Of course you can only build the regular C300 on the US site

You know, the fact that MBUSA is still showing this vehicle as future and have merely now added the 2024 C63 as future, is irritating. At what point will they update the the US Configurator? This is a 2023 vehicle. Many of you ordered 2nd qtr.
I’d like to complete my actual build to visualize this sight unseen vehicle I’m buying. That would at least give me something to do other than calendar watch and wait for my periodic SA text check in.
Red caliper option and black wheel options would save me some $$ on the back end of this deal, but don’t think it’s happening.

At my dealership now speaking to my SA. Netstar shows I am still scheduled for production next week, 11/18. My order was highlighted in red, which means I can no longer make changes. No constraints from what he could tell (Studio, Burmeister, etc.), but still too early to tell. No VIN yet either.
Per Netstar, a few cars were already produced in October and are currently at the Baltimore VPC waiting to be released. They had VIN’s as well.
I’d be pleasantly surprised if I see the car before the end of the year but I’m certainly not holding my breath.
Will provide an update next week.
