C63S Coupe MBUSA Configurator is now up

Not sure if this has been posted, but I just noticed MB USA has put up the configurator for the C63S coupe.

And I don't see the designo seat options, so I guess that comes later...

Awesome thanks for the heads up. Hope they add the c43 soon.

Ooohhhh, aaaahhhhh. I could have sworn I looked yesterday and it wasn't there.
Now, when will the convertibles be on there? (Wife wants convert, I want coupe. Who do you think will win?)

Finally! Thanks for posting this.

I built mine to the spec on my order sheet and compared it to an Excel doc I put together with pricing, and it matched down to the dollar -- so thanks to whoever posted that netstar screenshot, all the pricing was accurate, and no sticker shock!

My build is came out to $89,510. After my ED discount, waived destination and shipping fee, $500 customer appreciation bonus, and a $1000 AMEX platinum discount, the price drops down to a very reasonable $82,609.50 (7.7% discount) for what is essentially a fully loaded C63S Coupe with all the bells and whistles.

The odd thing is that if you spec out a 2016 C63S Sedan with the same/equivalent options that come standard on the Coupe, it actually has a higher MSRP.

I don't like the packaging scheme.

I noticed this today too and am actually disappointed in the packages and options. I was ready to put my build in and get the ball rolling but now I'm hesitating. First, I don't like that you can't pick and choose which options you want. They grouped it as either premium 2 or premium 3. Premium 2 would be fine, but there are a few things i want off of 3. However, i don't want or need all of the safety assist stuff.

Secondly, the diamond stitched seats are a big deal for me. I know that may sound crazy, but i spend a lot of time driving. The way the interior looks and feels is a very important to me and the diamond stitching was number 1 on my must have list. Now I'm kind of bummed i have waited for the coupe and the sedan is the only one getting this option. I dunno. Now i have a rethink everything. Maybe i will wait it out until 2018 to see if they add the designo seats.

I was wondering the same... Only tire I can think of are the Michelin Pilot Sport Cup 2. Which are very sticky tires (had them on the GT4), but those would not last for 2 weeks on the torque monster C63S.

I think the Corvette Z06 comes with them as well, so that shouldn't deter MB from using them I guess. Amazing tires, but mainly for track use...

Are the stock tires Pilot Super Sports?

I am interested in the C63S coupe at the moment. I think it is a beautiful car and although heavier than the current M4, I just couldn't consider the M4 over this beast. For the longest time I have been an 'M3' guy over the C class AMGs. But this particular iteration of the C63S has really won me over. Can't wait to see members post their pics...

I was told it will come standard with Michelin PSS or equivalent tire. The extreme performance tires refers to Cup 2 or equivalent tire.

That is correct. The standard tires will probably be Dunlop, Michelin, or Pirelli since these cars are assembled in Germany. The Extreme Performance Tire are Cup 2's. We can now get those on the AMG GT-S as well. You can only get them on the C63 S with the 19"/20" wheel option. There is a disclaimer that they do not grip in wet/inclement weather.

I am never going to use most of the stuff in Premium 3 and furthermore there's no way I want the safety assist garbage on a performance coupe either.

Disappointing.
LEDs are standard, it's the ILS that comes only in P3.

If last year's release of the sedan is any indication, I'd expect late August/early September for dealers to start getting inventory in the US.

A bit silly that the adaptive isn't already standard on the top of the line C AMG coupe. Worse that it can't be ordered a la carte and forced into the same package with electronic nanny gear.
Agreed. BMW has adaptive Xenons standard on all of their M cars.

Adaptive full LED's are $1900 for the M3/M4 - you need to tick the Lighting Package box for the full adaptive LED Lights and automatic high beams.

On the 2016 C63 Sedan, the Lighting Package is only an $800 option and includes active full-LED headlamps and LED taillamp, adaptive highbeam assist, and active curve illumination.

I agree that it's a bit ridiculous and frustrating for MB to bundle an $800 option into the most expensive premium package with all the driver assistance aides. Not getting those LED's is a deal-breaker for me (I can't stand the way the headlights look without that double lens). So the $5100 P03 package it is...

I don't mind the lights not being LED's. Give me adaptive xenons, at least. On the W204, the C63 came with Halogens standard which was a bit ridiculous. At least they are LED's now. I love the double teardrop lights though. My only gripe with the LED's is the DRL design is too soft. I wish it had a sharper cut, kind of like the CLA.

There's always the Porsche route where every freaking thing is an a la carte option and costs an arm and a leg.

FYI, I was playing around with the configurator today and noticed that pricing has increased for both P02 and P03 packages.

P02 is now $2650 (used to be $2200) and P03 is now $5550 (used to be $5100).

Wow! That's somewhat considerable. It does suck that the P03 includes the lighting package to begin with.

What the ****. Assuming this will flow through to the C43 too...
