To the big guys
How are the seats? Please post your height and weight if comfortable. I'm 6'0 and 270 lbs trying to see how the seats would be.

6ft and 270 ? You need to lose some weight, brotha !! 
I am 6'1", 185 and they fit great...still a bit of wiggle room if adjusted out. I would think you might find them a bit snug.

I'm 6'1 175 ........no Burger King for me, just a healthy diet and a good exercise regime 
and the seats fit me like a glove......shouldn't be too difficult to find a C63 in your area, it has the same seats

6 ft and 280 here. Love the seats. My waist and thighs are fine. I have very wide shoulders and lats and the seats are snug from mid back through the shoulders but not unreasonable.

Drove it 900 miles from Jacksonville FL to Philadelphia PA with my brother in 2 days, 50% in the drivers seat, 50% in the passengers seat.
The most comfortable sports car I have EVER driven in long-term and I have had Mazda Rx-7s, BMW M3s, and a BMW M6 on long term drives before. 5'10", 165 lbs.
Yes, it is hard to believe, I still can't believe it.

6' 235 lbs. 38" waist (down from 260 and 44), exercise daily, love the seats, no fitment problems. I really look good in my BS! Even at 260 and 44 they were not a problem.

The headrests are integrated into the seats... i like my seat angled backward and therefore my head does not touch them. As my seats are currently adjusted, I could probably put a helmet on and just be resting it on the headrest with no problems or need to readjust. Bottom line: very comfortable, no problems.
Buy the damn car already!
Search Google images for various shots of the seats.

Workin on it.
Thanks for the offer but I am going to look at a car on Saturday. Where on LI are you? Maybe we can meet up sometime. I am in the Islip area.
Two more questions:
Does the car have the raise height button like other AMGs do?
And does anyone have a video of the throttle blip on the downshift?

It's unlike any other AMG.
Okay, that's not exactly what they said, but the "no" part is accurate.

The "no" was more likely due to the wonderfully complex U.S. EPA and CAFE regulations which would most likely not let a manufacturer offer a retro software program for the engine or transmission without re-certifying the vehicle for the U.S. which is a lengthy and expensive process. Otherwise a manufacturer could thwart the emissions and mileage regs by simply certifying a detuned version of the car and then offering a software performance upgrade to the buyers.
