2019 C63S Deliveries
#977
⭐⭐⭐⭐⭐
Took delivery of my 2019 C63S a few weeks ago. Wanted to share a few photos as I had made a few uncommon cosmetic choices on this one to get it the way I wanted it to look. Mainly:
Some thoughts: normally I’m a night package kind of person, but while playing around with the configurator online I found that I actually like the silver A-wing at the front and I and absolutely LOVE the chrome exhaust tips. I think these details give the car a nice contrast. However I couldn’t stand the chrome around the windows so I took care of that after delivery.
As for the paint choice, I love the factory Magno Selenite but couldn’t justify the cost of the paint premium since I was planning to matte-PPF the car anyway. The pragmatic side of me says the PPF’d look is plenty awesome, while offering the peace of mind of the paint protection.
Anyway hope this helps those of you who may be considering some of the same choices I went through. Cheers.

To change color (e.g. white to matte grey) you’d need to do a vinyl wrap I’d imagine, as I’m not sure there’s a PPF product (like Suntek or Xpel) that also alters color. From what I have seen, vinyl wraps tend to be a lot cheaper than PPF, but my understanding is that they are mostly cosmetic rather than paint protection. Perhaps other folks more familiar with vinyl wraps can weigh in.

I don't mind a wrap if it's like a camo or crazy print on a car to make it really stand out. I don't particularly care for wrapping a car a different color. I don't like seeing the original color and other non-wrapped (door jambs, etc..) parts. Kind of ruins it in a way. Especially on a nice car.

Looks amazing. My selenite grey convertible arrives on Wednesday (UK). I have a quote for the satin conversion. It is pricey though. I might stick with the metallic and do the front end in Xpel PPF. I have a few more days to make up my mind. Congrats on your choice.

2019 AMG C63S coupe / 2015 BMW X6 xdrive 50i
Hi I'm from Hong Kong.
I placed deposit for this stock 2019 C63S coupe. Sorry for the bad quality pics as I got these forwarded from my sales rep. Anyway, I originally wanted to order a graphite grey magno with yellow stitching interior but the dealer is not accepting indent order as the queue for post April-2019 manufactured vehicle testing for type approval at Hong Kong Transport department is delayed indefinitely. Therefore, my only choice is 1 of 3 stock the dealer had. I chose this black one as I think it would look similar to graphite grey magno if I do a matte/satin PPF on it. Anyhow, I still need to wait for Transport Department's approval for registration by August, meaning I can only take possession and delivery in early September. The wait is so long..................

Mine waited about a month to get assigned to a ship. It arrived in Baltimore May 28th, but I'm being told it might take another month because it needs new software. Huh? It was just made and it needs new software that will keep it at the port? Why can't it be released to the dealer for the upgrade? Is this to detune the pops and bangs for the US market? I really don't understand how this happens.
Care to comment Jonathan Harris?

Mine was on the same boat as yours I imagine, Sullicc4. My advisor told me it's being held at port "waiting for a part" but he's not able to find out what that means nor does he know how long it will take. Maybe this "part" is the software update you mention. That would make a lot more sense to me than a physical part as I don't recall selecting any VPC installed options. But maybe I did, dunno

Sedans still go through the VPC at the nearest port. You just don't have to deal with customs, but your car will go through the port as well for final inspection and delivery to the dealership. They don't deliver directly from the factory.
