Talking 2016 Lunar Blue

Finally took delivery of my car yesterday. Good Lord is it quick! Coming from an 09 G37. Been lurking around the forums the past few months. Think I've read every post twice while waiting . Got some great tips from a bunch of you and just wanted to say thanks. I'll add my initial thoughts in a few days or so.

I also came from an '09 g37xS sedan...

The g37 still has better throttle response!

Good luck with that. Very difficult task, although probably made easier if you go for a long run one day and knock 500 off at once. Plus your option of the selectable performance exhaust will help, so even in comfort mode you can enjoy the extra noise.


Plus, there is still the need to run it in gradually after the 1k, probably up to the time when the limited slip differential gets its oil change.


Great pictures of a great car, love the view from above. That colour was on my own short-list, although eventually went for Palladium Silver.


Seat colours... spot on!


Enjoy.

Thanks! Silver was on my short list as well but my G was silver so blue won out. Good point on the diff oil change that's really how I plan to handle it but with fewer limitations as I near 2k. Btw, if you guys haven't had a chance to listen to it in a wide underpass or tunnel, do yourselves a favor and find one today!

Here's a shot of the standard seats in Designo Saddle Brown with the same Lunar Blue exterior.

Amazing! I would do Iridium over the Saddle Brown. Such a beautiful interior and it's only $500.

Partly because the standard is pretty fancy already. 500 is the delta!

Nice color choice OP.
That interior is really a step up compared to the W204.

Don't talk down the 204 interior. Those clk bs style seats in the sedan have a special place in my heart;p

I was not referring to the seats but to the overall improvement of the material and details of the W205 interior. The CLK BS buckets are still great. If only you could have spec'ed the euro buckets for the C63 BS
