I just heard from my SA. He says there have been 38 c43's released, all from the port of Brunswick. None, as of today, from Baltimore.

My car just got delivered to my dealership (NC). They need a day to do all of their dealer prep and I should be taking delivery tomorrow!

Congratulations! My status was just updated to VPC ready, so apparently that means it'll be heading to the dealership soon.

That's a great question. It was originally sent to the VPC in California for some reason where I had assumed it sat since January. Either the transport driver had a heavy foot to get it across the country so quickly, or they transferred it to Georgia at some point in the last 3 months and just never told me.

Cars are getting released from Baltimore. That's clear. Don't know if mine is on the truck as yet. But notation reads "VPC Complete - Carrier Tender Notification" SA should arrive within the week, likely sooner.

I just got a call from my SA. He said that distribution tells him my car has also been released from the Baltimore VPC. It should soon be on a truck for the trip to Missouri.

Congrats to everyone on the good news and updates. Hope you all get the cars very soon.

Quick question for those in North America, how long did it take from the Car being built to the Car arriving at VPC for you guys?

Thanks in advance.

Congrats everyone. Let's see some of those whips as you all begin to pick up. I'll be getting mine in August

Myself, I'm specifically curious how the Manufaktur graphite grey magno is looking on the C43...

Anyone have strong opinions on the pinnacle package? The only things I really care about on it are the upgraded sound system and ambient lighting... I wonder how much of an upgrade they are and if it's worth the extra $4k?

For those who have custom ordered with a build date over the summer... What wheels did you all get? Supposedly the original 10 spoke 20" black accent has been replaced by a new 5 spoke 20" rim with black accents, but there aren't any photos available. Does anyone have anymore info?

Mine is supposed to have the 20s with black accents, but the window sticker says 20 inch AMG Y 5-spoke with black accents. I'm hoping it'll be at the dealership this week, so I'll let you know when I finally see it.
