2019 C63CS
That's the estimate to set expectations. It could be faster if the car spends little time sitting around, gets quickly allocated and loaded on a vessel, sails through the VPC and customs and quickly gets a ride to your dealer. My last European Delivery took 10 weeks from drop off to redelivery at my dealer. It was with Audi, but they all use the same logistics companies. Granted, I kinda made the mistake to drop it off in Switzerland, so it first had to be trucked to Emden. I'm guessing I could have shaved off 3-4 weeks if I had dropped it off in Emden or maybe less, but it took 4 weeks from the time I dropped it off until it finally was loaded on a vessel. This time my plan is to drop it off in Bremerhaven, so it doesn't have to be trucked there first and hopefully doesn't take too long to get on vessel.

I’d say you’ll see it best case last week in February. Average case second week in March. Worst case last week in March.

Located in Australia. A C63S coupe. I think there may have been some delays with RHD cars (given the high demand for LHD cars) which explains the delay here.

c63s coupe
Have been waiting since November 2017, over 1 1/2 years with a series of delays for the C63s Coupe.
I’ve recently been advised of Dec2018 being pushed to Jan, then March 20th 2019 or further again.
Anyone else with a shared experience?? I guess I’ll be one of the first in Australia when it actaully arrives, hope this wait is worth it.....

How is that even possible? I've seen tons of 18s even on car lots...is there a specific build you've been looking for? are you looking at a '19 at this point?
EDIT: just saw you're from Australia, not the US...sorry

No, 2019 edition release coupe, Pano grill, Carbon pack etc. I was expecting this release mid last year for 2018, however seems a 2019 edition. I presume limited production capacity in Affalterbach, hence delays. Anyone with shared experince?

As far as I know there was never an earlier official release from mercedes expected than q1 2019..Some had a schedule that showed a possibility of november 2018 but mercedes official press release stated q1 2019. That is what mercedes said from the beginning. It gives mercedes the ability to build up hype for the vehicle for a year. It is standard for mercedes. They debuted the CLA during the super bowl and they didn't end up in lots until the next super bowl.. lol.. Also the engine is built in Affalterbach but assembly of the coupe is done in Bremen Germany. Assembly of the sedan in the US for the most part is done in Alabama. Strangely my dealer says once in awhile they get a sedan from the South Africa facility and they don't know why.

Mine also entered production on Feb 1st. The ETA on the screenshot that my dealer sent me shows March 17. Anyone know a more realistic or accurate ETA for me car? I ordered a C63S Coupe and I am located in Vancouver Canada. Thanks!
