For me its usually 4-5kph lower than speedometer reading on the car.

There are also GPS speedometer apps. I downloaded one to use while riding the Shinkansen in Japan to see how fast (178mph) we were going.

Anyone know the story behind why we can't purchase track pace from the mercedes me store?

Dima

Yes we do. Congrats on a new car. You need advanced MBUX that is part of pinnacle package to get that.

eatmydust

That answers that. Thank you!

BenjaminKohl

I believe you don't necessarily need the pinnacle trim, but you do need navigation.

Back to back c43 recalls. Letters will be sent in August to those affected.

AzurSL

First time logging on in a while so a bit late on my part but massive congrats! Looking forward to seeing pics and reading about your impressions. How much are you paying per month if you don’t mind me asking? Either way enjoy!

Dima

If you enter your vin on the NHTSA and MB recall sites, does it show a recall? mine does not. press release does not say all are being recalled.

eatmydust

Ended up at 704 w tax monthly (high tax state) with 1200 down (includes first month payment.)

In the end the discount was actually over 13% now that I look at it again.

eatmydust

Mine does not. But many may be impacted. I believe the top one shows 8k+ c43s affected.

Dima

Strange though that the date of recall was announced is june 29, but no mention in recall database and the letter to owners will be going out Aug. 29.
The tanny is made in Botswana by the way the technological hub of the universe. No wonder MB quality is going down.

AzurSL

Under 700 before tax with barely anything down is pretty impressive. Nice deal!

eatmydust

it took some work haha. I also had two incentives, 750 cash on w206 ends sept 3rd. And 1k loyalty from mbfs.

AzurSL

The work was worth it in the end. I find that I enjoy a car just that much more when I know I got a good deal lol. Maybe I’m just cheap

same. I've always been, let's call it, frugal. lol

W205C43PFL

You did well, that is a good payment.

W205C43PFL

Well not like it means anything but the whole car is made in South African factory in East London, I heard at least the build quality is better than Alabama. Anyways, who is the manufacturer/supplier of the transmission, do we know?

W205C43PFL

The incentives helped but you got some great negotiation skills good for you.

Dima

Are you gonna call them?

Mercedes makes their own transmissions. With the exception of the transaxle in the GT 2 doors.

W205C43PFL

Appreciate the information was just curious.

W205C43PFL

That I understand, I was wondering who is the one who built it for them.

W205C43PFL

They must really hate digital light, saw this one at the Whitby, Ontario (Canada) dealership today. The vehicle is tinted to the point you can't even see the interior (so most likely illegal by Ontario standards), and vehicle was locked I assume this vehicle is sold already although it doesn't say sold.
