New here. I'm looking to buy a new car sometime in 2016, and I'm leaning heavily towards buying a C63S Coupe Edition 1 when they're released.
So, I need some information from those that ordered the Edition 1 Sedans. How were the Edition 1s sold for the sedan? Was there an option for adding an Edition 1 package to your C63S order? If so, how long was the package available for order? (Basically, how was its availability limited? By # sold? Or by date?) How much was the package? And last, but not least, how soon before the sedans went on sale were you able to place your order?
Thank you very much ahead of time for any information you're able to provide!

Reason: grammar and stuff
Unless I'm mistaken, only one Edition 1 will be sold per dealership in America. Also, my closest dealership already had someone put money down, despite it not yet being ready to order, but YMMV on that.

You are mistaken, when I picked mine up they had one already claimed by a buyer and another one (mine) was just sitting there unclaimed until I grabbed her. It was luck... or somebody cancelled their order.
The ED1 is technically an order code but other than a few specific touches (red carbon-fiber center console, stickers, wheels) its a fully optioned-out C63S. The only options as I recall were exterior color and CCB.
On the ordering system the ED1 is not an upgrade to a C63S, its actually a different car in their system called C63P (Premium, I was told).
The ED1 Coupe will be a huge hit with huge markups so get your order in now and put money down without going over msrp.

I wonder what the code is for a C63S then?
If it is similar to the E class, E63P was the system code for the E63S.
When you check a build sheet for a GTS edition 1 is actually an option like P98 code is the black series option.
I would not be surprised if C63P is just the system code for the C63S whether ed1 or not

I pulled my dealer order sheet and it shows C63WS
On the vin decoder it shows C63P
On my dealer work order for a oil and diff change it shows C63/P
Thanks, fellas! Much appreciated. I may have found an inside track. Turns out, my friend's hubby works for an MB dealership! I have to get one. This thing is just too damn gorgeous!!

Here in Australia, the Edition 1 is code P97 on my wagon. The model description is "M-AMG C63T S 20528722-AU2 (S205) AU"
Interestingly, the red pepper carbon interior trim, edition 1 wheels, and and red diamond stitching have their own, separate factory option codes.

Really don't see the appeal of this 'ED1 Motorsport' as it's called in the UK. Don't know what they were thinking with that asymmetrical stripe along the top, especially in that bright yellow colour, and the bright yellow rim flanges...all just looks a bit tacky imo. However, each to their own and if you like it then good for you and hope you can source one
Over here, the Edition 1 Motorsport is an option that you can tick. The standard ED1 comes with graphite decals and be configured in any exterior colour, ticking the ED1 motorsport package on top of that gives you the magno selenite, yellow decals and unique rims from the picture
Might just be enhanced on that clip. Unless someone knows a reason why it would be louder? I figured the engine and exhaust specs were the same for coupe and sedan?
