Hey guys - I've been waiting for my car for almost 3 months now. Last update I received from sales lady was on 12/30. She said that the car was one status away from "production started" and was still scheduled for 1/25. She is great about giving me updates when there are updates - and I am trying to not be a nag. I even checked in with her today on something else so I know if there was a new update she would have provided. So my question to you all is does my timeline seem consistent with what you experienced? I am only 11 days out from the production date. Will things start moving fast and furious in the next few days as it relates to status changes on my order?

This wait has been brutal...so ready to meet my new baby!

Your feedback is much appreciated.

Thanks!

Jeremy

I ordered my C63 S on around Oct 20 and have had no updates yet. So I'm just shy of three months too, but no news yet! It is a bit disappointing MB can't publish rough timelines for dealers to pass on to customers. My dealer literally has no idea when mine will hit production.

Ironically J I happen to come across your car today while doing a locate; beautiful spec! Production will actually begin 3-5 days before the final date of 1/25. Around the 20th; it when everything begins.

I know the feeling! My sales guy contacted me a couple of weeks ago and confirmed that my vehicle was scheduled for production on Jan 22nd and he hoped to get it first part of February.

Can this be correct??! I was under the impression that once in production it takes several months before delivery.

Trying not to get my hopes up but at least a production date is some light at the end of the tunnel.

Hang in there

Thanks JP - best news of the day! How long do you think it will take from production to dealership? Keep in mind I am only 3 hours from Vance, AL facility.

PaulNC

I'd be interested to know too. My dealership told me mine is now in production but to expect delivery in 90 days...

jeremyf0923

I suspect it depends on where you are located, but 90 days AFTER production to deliver to dealership sounds quite extreme and unreasonable. I am in Atlanta - just 3 hours from the MB production facility in Alabama. The impression I got from my dealership was that it would take days (not weeks and definitely not months) assuming no unforeseen delays.

I'm in CA and I took delivery 12 days after production.

JPMBenz

My best guess would be 2-3 days.

Update from my sales lady today - just hit B4 status! Getting close!

JPMBenz

B4 aka 4 days to completion.

I ordered my C63 in October. I was originally told it would be in January. Today they told me me it was scheduled for production in May 2016. This is getting to be ridiculous.

jeremyf0923

Think it is time to find a new dealership. If not, might as well wait for a MY2017.

jeremyf0923

Music to my ears!

RDOCA

I agree and think the dealer was not telling you the truth.

jeremyf0923

JP - u nailed it! Car was officially completed today. Jesse just let me know - even sent me my VIN. So excited! Just a few more days til I meet my new baby!

JPMBenz

Haha her and I were on the phone yesterday. Glad it all worked out.

Utan104

Just got a call from my sales guy and apparently my car arrived early

Best surprise ever! Hope to have some photo's tomorrow

jeremyf0923

Great news Utan! Looking forward to seeing the pics. Sounds like I will have mine by end of next week. Can't wait!

All this early talk has me excited. I have a 4/1 build date that I'm hoping moves up. 1st AMG after two e9x M3s

finch!

Yikes. I thought we had it bad here in Australia. I waited 12 months for an A45 but was pleasantly surprised at the C63s - I ordered it in very early September and it was built in December, and now it's on the ship from Germany - ETA a couple of weeks.

Where is your C63 being built, and what are the specs?

dagasking

Production @ the US factory in AL, only a few hours from me. Pretty loaded, I attached the build sheet.

JPMBenz

Beautiful Spec!! I love the Designo interiors!

jeremyf0923

Status just moved to "wholesaled" which means my baby is on a truck! Should be able to pick it up tomorrow or Saturday. Yahooooooooo!!'

JPMBenz

AWESOME!!!
