Dealer tells me 319 cannot be added afterwards.

So so I have the car spec exactly as I ordered and waited 6 months for sitting there, except the 319 option (which should have been there).

Not sure if this is a make-them-reorder thing, or what at this point. Disappointing for sure.

I might have you beat...I ordered 11/16/18. Was told 12/20/18 that I had a 2/1/19 build slot. 1/06/19 was told they would not be able to paint my car the color I ordered. Argued with AMG a pushed things up the chain. AMG said they would paint my car the way I wanted but my build slot would be moved to 4/1/19 due to "no stock" of the paint. April comes and goes. Mid-May they said delay due to paint again. Late May said another delay due to carbon fiber spoiler. Mid-June am told everything is back on track and should be on a boat by end of June. As of today, no further updates and AMG has no answer. 6/25/19 - customer frustrated. Haha. It's kind of one of those, "I still wait patiently in excited anticipation" but at the same time, am "annoyed as heck" at the delays. I know it's a matter of time, but at this point I'm hoping I get the first MY2020 off the line. LOL

 

even worse! BIRD POOP!

 

After a yearlong wait, mine showed up at the dealer yesterday! I get to take delivery tomorrow it sounds like.

Jason, I saw yours there too. You can kinda see it two cars behind mine. An SA walking by while I was checking mine out mentioned that MB screwed up the lights on your order. Really sorry to hear that

 

Yay, another Cabrio! Nice spec! I got that CF spoiler too...did it delay your vehicle's build like mine at all? Also, the spoiler looks larger than normal, no? Is that the standard CF spoiler or the aero one? Didn't think the aero one was available, if so. Can't tell from the pics if you got the CF packages or not. Is the A-wing and mirror in CF? enjoy your ride...i'm jealous

 

Yup, that does appear to be my car. I was just told it would need to be reordered as the only option. I'll at least go by to see how the blue and grey/yellow performance seats look together.

I’m not sure what all of the delays were. MB and the dealer could never tell me why it was delayed so many times. I also ordered the HUD which was limited availability so I’m sure that didn’t help.

I got both exterior CF packages, so the A-wing, mirrors, side sills, spoiler, and diffuser are all CF. They look great in person!

No aero pack as it didn’t seem to be available on the cab. The spoiler does look larger than I expected. I love it!

 

I’d be bummed Jason. On the other hand, your car looks awesome in person. I love the brilliant blue paint.

 

It’s an awesome combo

 

Sadly, I think I'm going to have to reject the car without 319. I didn't get a chance to go see it in person yet, but I know that missing option 319 (basically the only thing in the entire order book except ceramic brakes) will eat at me. One thing I noticed on mbusa, it doesn't seem like one can spec performance seats+heat+ventilation now. I'm wondering if it is just coded wrong on the website, or if that combination has been removed going forward.

I do agree, that is a good looking combination.

That's a bug in the configurator. It's been like this since they updated it for 2019. The current configurator is pretty atrocious.

 

For what it's worth, I got a few quotes for matte XPEL PPF full wrap on my Coupe, ranged around $6.5-7k in the Washington DC area. Too much for me to justify.

 

Ohhh Snap!... lol Great looking ride!!

 

Wow, cost for that in DFW is about $1,200 - $1,400.

 

I picked up my '19 C63s Sedan in Iowa last week. Prior to delivery, they did full frontal XPEL film (front, hood, fenders, side view mirrors, all four door edges, door handle cups) plus window tinting (rear window and sides front and back) for $1,500. It wasn't done by the dealer, however. They shop it out to a specialty place about four miles from the dealership.

It makes sense the the price would vary based on local cost of labor and demand.

 

Well finally the car has arrived, picking it up later today.

 

Arrived at dealer today, pick up Saturday. A lot of PPF going on the car now. Excited. Iridium over Pepper red/black, B26, Performance seats, carbon/dinamica wheel, most packages... some not so good images from dealer.

 

Got information on my 2020 order. Scheduled for 7/11 production. SA told me expect the car end of July or early August. Also they removed the aero package from my order due to backorder I believe, SA said we could do another build but would delay around 2 months. I’m thinking I can always buy the parts separately and get them installed rather than waiting. I welcome any thoughts or input.

 

About time to start the "2020 C63s Deliveries" thread, I think.

 

Already at home

 

I wouldn´t pass on the aeropack...

 

Oh Em Gee....for someone who's been waiting for a car, this frustrates me to no end. Arjy, you're 100% sure yours is a MY2020? Mine is supposed to be done building in a few days...if mine comes as a MY2019 just weeks before your MY2020 comes, I will be P.O.'d.

 

His is indeed a 2020 as indicated on the Netstar screenshot. I’ve been following your details in this thread and you have my sympathies. I also have a MY2020 that was produced today, according to my est build date.

However I am skeptical that I’ll actually see my car before September if these MY2019 timelines are any indication.

 

HAHA WHAT THE. your MY2020 was made BEFORE my MY2019?

I'm going to start collecting sympathy checks from everyone since I seem to be having the worst luck...

Does anyone know if there's any chance my car will be born as a 2020?

 

My thoughts exactly

went to the dealership in May, could not order a 2019 only 2020 was available
