C63 AMG Coupe

Does anyone think it'll be possible to get an edition 1 of the c63 AMG coupe without the ridiculous yellow racing stripe?

Also am I the only person who is salivating at the thought of buying one of these cars?

I believe they're just stickers so it is possible to have them removed. This is what I was told with the sedan Ed. 1

Yes I'm definitely with you on the excitement level for getting this coupe, just that annoying wait game now it seems with no clear ETA in place yet apart from possibly 2nd quarter 2016 ( in Australia).

You're definitely not alone in salivating over the new coupe

I'm advising from a UK perspective, but over here those ridiculous yellow stripes are part of the 'edition 1 "motorsport package"' which is an add on to the normal edition 1 (which has these much-less visible graphite stripes that you can have removed).

If you read through the other threads associated with the C205 C63 you'll discover that you are not the only one salivating over this new AMG C Coupe, ie. it has plenty of fans


I would suggest to the moderators it's time to start a dedicated sub forum section for this variant, just like the set up for the individual variants of the A Class AMG's.


Re: the Edition 1's here in Aust. you can't order them with decal delete, I think that applies to all markets, you can delete it yourself anyway after delivery - obviously if and/or when you sell you need to re-instate the decals for proper ED1 resale value I would assume...


Totally agree with your thoughts on those decals (and even those on the 507's) they look totally ridiculous and IMHO seriously do not belong on a cars like these, that sort of blinging is more at home with the fast n furious ricer crowds.

JP --do you know if the decals are dealer installed or port or where??
I don't have a E1 but I thought I saw someone say the dealer had not put his on.

You also have to be a fan of the yellow stitching on the seats which I think looks like crap but beauty is in the eyes of the beholder. Personally I'm going to order a non-edition 1 coupe in selenite grey with either an all black interior or black w/ white inserts.

I dig the seats but a bit too much flare on the exterior for me.

Good call on selenite grey, it's a lovely colour, same as what I'm getting although my interior will be red pepper.

And just to make it fully clear, Germany is the only market in which you can order the edition 1 coupe without any yellow stripes on the outside (all the cars in the press drive used on track had the edition 1's exterior night package, extended front splitter and rear diffuser but no stripes). But you're still stuck with the horrendous yellow diamond stitching (according to the online configurator)
