Got some great news today!

My 2018 C63s coupe Obsidian Black Metallic is on the Galaxy Ace ship and will be docking in the Port of Georgia on August 16. I'm Tracking the ship. It's been 4 months since I placed my order. I'm one happy camper.

Did you get any new information on when the 2018 C-class coupes will be released to dealers? MBUSA.com was updated a few days ago with the 2018 C-class sedan information but the coupe is still listed as 2017.

Also, what was your build date? My car (C63S coupe) was a late June build. My dealer sent me the window sticker information on July 10th and said the car was already in the US awaiting release by MB. I placed my order in March but they were still building 2017 at the time so didn't get a build slot confirmation until April 19th.

Not sure as to when the 2018's coupes will be released, but since mine is on the way I'm pretty sure is this Month. My build date was last week in July, but originally was scheduled for first week in September and was moved up. I placed my order on March 29th. If your car is in the states your dealer should be able to tell you when it will be arriving once MB assigns it to a carrier. So in my opinion your going to have your car very soon. Good luck and congrats!

My dealer told me that my 2018 c63s coupe is at the port of baltimore, but he has no idea when Mercedes plans on releasing it officially

It's definitely worth the wait, but it never gets easy. Of all the cars I've bought new, only one was off a lot (an Audi S5) and I got rid of it in less than a year because it was missing a few options and wasn't the right color. It was fine for about six months, but it nagged on me every time I drove it... not making that mistake again.

Welcome, soon enough, to the club of having your car at port unavailable to you. (Saracasm as clearly that's not the club you want to be in with us but will be.)

Last year our sedan was built mid August. Mercedes didn't release it until 1st week of October.

We have a cabriolet being built next week. Hopeful it won't have a similar delay again this year. But not getting my hopes too high.
