How far is the VPC from you? Baltimore is about 4 hours away so not bad. How long does it usually take for your dealership to get it once it gets on a truck?

I've heard trucking has been in high demand, it could take a while. I am about 8 hours from Brunswick - I expect it to take the better part of a week to get to my dealership after it gets on a truck.

Also, my dealer is up to 16 C43's listed on their website at this point, which is previously up from about 10 I think or so the last time I checked. At least the EPA ratings seem to be done. There's gotta be an SA or someone out there that has some sort of update, you'd think.. ha.

Which link? Mine still shows a half broken configurator with the incorrect grill/options, but it is at least showing up that I started to build on on the models screen:

Sorry, quote didn't make on for some reason. It was Eaton's original link from last week. I'm also noticing the front seat material doesn't change no matter what finish you choose. At least it's mostly there so I folks can land on a reasonable price.

No worries, hopefully we are almost there! Another forum member mentioned they know someone who works on the MB USA Web team / configuration, and sounded like it would be sometime in mid-March or so it fully goes live. All good signs.

I am curious what dealer is that? mine shows 0 and none within 80 miles of Boston.
Also, the payment estimate is up as well and it's not that far off. Looks like residual is 61% for 12k and MF = 0.00270

Ray Catena, hope you're getting a msrp or better. Looks like the entire fleet sitting at VPC is theirs.

61% for 12k - amazing!

That pretty much confirms me leasing.

Your dealer must have numbers already so you can confirm with him. Let us know if I am off because it's possible dealer can inflate the money factor.

Thanks! Making it harder to wait... lol. I was just laughing thinking that these were literally our cars, and they were ripping them around the track before the boat came to kill time.

Left-hand drive?
Anyway, if someone wants to have a track time and lives in Atlanta, Austin or So. CA, there are AMG driving academy events taking place on tracks there.
Or, just rent some track time like I did locally.

I think this is posted already but in case it isn't:
Still waiting for his POV review, which should be due any week now based on how he usually format his videos:
Anyone heard a weird noise at 210 kph when he is driving or something wrong with my ears or speakers, I played it multiple times and on multiple devices, probably my ears then.

I agree that it wouldn't be an issue in North America, I also don't think it would be an issue even if you are on a race track because you quickly drop below those speeds at a corner. I understand the C 43 is mainly a daily driver and C 63 S was what was for track use, I mean that is also particularly why I bought my W205 one and I also needed 4MATIC.
