Geez 17k in extras for a c-class is hefty. This should not be a $90k car by any means. Still love it though and will end up waiting on a used one lol

beautiful car. My local dealer has one on the lot in Cardinal Red and that color is really on point. I figured you had to order this since I haven't seen any on any dealer lots without the damn Pano-Roof.

Yea I know but still overpriced. I love my w204 c63 but I wouldn't pay more than $70k for a small sedan

even $70 is ridonkulous considering one can buy a Corvette.

What made this expensive was the brakes, paint, and the seats.

Those crazy brakes were almost $6000 alone.

Well to be honest Fletcher Jones had 8 - c63s' on the lot. They had like 7 of the standard White, Silver and Black colors and this was the only RED one and it didn't have a pano roof. I live in CA and I never understand the convertible sunroof crowd. I know they look cool but they create lots of heat in the car and i have no hair on top of my head so i would never open it and get sun burned.

70k is on par with a well equipped sports sedan. Look at the ATS-V, M3/4, RCF. None of them comparably equipped would be under 70k MSRP.

True - no better car in market when looking at price/performance ratio. However, that is assuming you want a pure two seater. When looking for a high performance FIVE seater, I think that the price of the C63 is right in line with the rest of the competition.

Yea that's true. I have a red w204 with yellow calipers (even though yours seem gold) ...thought it was tacky at first but glad you joined the McDonalds look with me lol

Sunroofs/moonroofs are great for venting the car on hot days and for romantic night drives with the lady. I'm just sayin.

On the other hand...Panoramic roofs that don't open and don't have an opaque screen are pure fail.

Love the Cardinal Red on any MB.

Beautiful and just the way I would have optioned it, except I would have added the forged wheels. However, with the savings with the standard wheels, you have some extra budget for after market wheels which will give you greater tire / wheel size flexibility.


Wish I could have gotten my Ed 1 with no pano roof, but with the HUD. Oh well, life is full of compromises ;-)
