2 more hours till i pick up my car. Pretty excited. I can't believe this thread blew up the way it did. It now has over 700 replies. 700 plus replies later I'm finally getting my car.

 

I will take delivery on May 26th 2015, I cannot wait, I will be traveling from May 21-26 so when I come back I will bolt to the dealer.

 

Dear Mr. Chan:

Thank you for taking the time to contact us. We are sorry to learn of the circumstances that prompted you to write.

Please note that we have recently been informed of a production error which resulted in some C63 S Edition 1 vehicles not being equipped with the red accents on the side mirror housing or the decal on the side panel. Once a solution is available, your selling Mercedes-Benz dealership will contact you to have this rectified.

Thank you again for writing, and we apologise for the inconvenience this may cause.


Kind regards,

Frédéric

Well... I just got a call from my Porsche dealer and they gave me an allocation for a GT4!

My build date is for this Fall and I am very excited! The GT4 was my top choice, so if I didn't get an allocation I would have happily purchased a C63S. In fact, the M4 fell behind the C63S as my second choice because it is going to be a beast! The GT4 and C63S are two very different cars, but both amazing machines for their intended purposes. I will be tracking the GT4.

Congrats to everyone here getting their C63/C63S soon! I will still be hanging around the forum and admiring all the new cars.

 

Congrats dude....! That is certainly a different type of beast. Should be fun for sure.

 

Thanks! 2950 lbs curb weight and 385 hp (probably closer to 400 hp) will be fun to throw around. I can already hear that engine screaming behind my ears..will be fun!

 

What?? Nuts. well, it looks like the reason you did not get decals is because there is a shortage.

So hopefully soon you will see them.

Kuba says the car at David Morris has decals in the trunk of it. He saw them. So once these cars are on the road, then you can prove to them they should be on it. I am putting the decals on mine when it comes in.

 

or is it just dealers trying to get a piece of you?
or did the ordering already begin?
i live in south california

 

Lol 700 replies but you guys would post every 30 seconds some days .. It's all good this car is very important to you

Hope it's everything you wanted lol

 

I just picked up my edition 1. The car is amazing!

Just one problem. Drove it 6kms and there is a coolant leak. The car is headed back to the dealer on a flat.

 

Congrats on picking up the car.

Dang sorry to hear that happened to you! Same thing happened to my CLA 45 when I first got it. Basically the coolant valve wasn't correctly closed. Hopefully that's the case with your car and not something serious!

 

Ah crap!!

Hopefully nothing catastrophic

 

Congrats and sorry -- all in the breath. Also, there is something wrong with this picture. New C63S E1 with the hood up with an M3 in front of it. I can see this picture making its way across the internet.

 

To make it worse... That is my buddies m3! And we were hoping to put up some reviews and some sound clips. Hopefully have it back for the weekend!

 

Just found out that they aren't holding the cars due to the decals/spoiler issues. So I'm back at the first step in finding out wtf is going on with my car, and where it is... So finally I'm give up. I'm bringing out the white flag.

 

???

 

I gave up on trying to figure out where my car is, and what's going on it with it.

 

I see. I thought that you are giving up the car all together!!

 

Oh. That's not happening yet, but who knows when it will.

 

i live in Australia - we have no build date verified therefore no delivery date - i placed a deposit on a ED 1 early Nov 2014 ,, reading the above regarding ED1 orders is inexcusable .. WTF how can MB deliver cars incomplete. i read somewhere. left hand drive vehicles built in south Africa, right had drive vehicles from Germany not sure if this is correct.

 

Patience my friend. I can hear it calling for you. Soon you will be

 

Some of these guys are a little too into it lol. Once I got my build date I stopped caring as much, it'll get here when it gets here...

 

So talked to my dealership today. They still haven't received a reply from MB Canada. So that's the bad news. Good news is they're willing to give me a loaner Thursday or Friday since I'm near my km limit.

I also contacted AMG. Hopefully they'll be able to figure out what's wrong, when the car will be shipped and when it will arrive, since from the looks of it MB Canada is unable to figure that stuff out. As for the cut off date for my patience? Probably mid June.

 

Hopefully you will hear from them soon!

 

I probably will. AMG actually cares about it's customers, and they were the ones to help me out when it came to replacing my CLA 45.
