I think I am going to leave it alone. I like the contrast.

Okay so I snapped some quick shots of the interior. I will post more when I do a full photo shoot. Please let me know if anyone has any questions. Oh, the floor liners I bought from WeatherTech. The regular C300/400 liners fit perfectly.

Ok, good to know. If you don't mind, update if you get around to doing any serious testing. I currently have my build with the Pano roof, but I am not super attached to it so if there is a noticeable difference I might take it off.

Your not using the original floor mats I noticed. You didn't like the ones that came with the car?

Correct. I think the all weather liners are a lot more durable and also idiot proof. LOL

It has been raining for the last 4 days in the Northeast; my carpets would have been trashed already.

I really wish they didnt have the grey accents made in alcantara - espically in grey, its going to be so hard to clean, I also find you can't use too much water when cleaning that stuff it can leave a damp smell.

I find all leather to be a cleaner look too, looks like the rear seats the alcantara doesnt sit too clean, kind of wrinkled already.

Maybe degisno would work better for me, wonder how much that is going to be to get..

Sonax makes a Alcantara cleaner. I will try that and report back to you. The Designo will probably be around $4,500 or so if I had to guess.

Thank you. I had some issues with the badges. The "I" in Bi Turbo already came off. So I have to get another set repainted and put back on. The glue on the back makes it very hard to make it straight.

The standard seats look awesome. Good job with the build, JP.

Iridium Silver is the business on the W205.

Sorry JP I know this is off topic but my dealer just informed me there is a $800 MSRP increase for the MY 2016. Can you confirm this. I'm sure more people would like to know.

That is correct. Both have a price increase of $800 over MY 15.


2016 C63 Base Price: $64,700
2016 C63 S Base Price: $72,700


Both are plus $925 Destination.

JP can I order the carbon fiber spoiler and the black side wing (if that's what you call it) separately or is it something I have to order with the car?

Don't mean to answer for JP but I know these guys have been offering a spoiler for some time now. I don't think its the same as the OEM spoiler but is an option if no other option exist. Hope this helps.

edit: I should say I don't work with or for these guys. Just noticed their thread on the forum.

Thank you bud, I saw that post but I don't like the shape of that spoiler, its to flat in my opinion. I appreciate the input!
