Looks good. Stuff everything into that bad boy cause whoever buys it will definitely want it in there!
|
I am surprised it is delayed States side. My order went through 2 weeks ago.
|
Were you able to configure the '446 touchpad' option? My dealer said that was not available on the Canadian model.

On a side note, I have been given the 1 allocation spot my dealer has for the upcoming black series due as a 2021 model. No real details yet but once I have the call to build it, I will post the details. |
Lose the Distronic...
|
Keep the Distronic; it’s fantastic on the highway.
Change the interior colour to Yellow stitching and Yellow seat belts. Looks so much better than the Silver. Add the top-of-the-line Burmester stereo. I have the ‘mid-line’ version in my GT R and it’s awful. Bish |

I like yellow but on the exterior. Yellow accents in a grey car with black interior is gimmicky and almost tacky. Silver is better to match the matte CF and grey exterior

+1 for the Distronic. Has saved my behind more than once.
|
Honest question. Why is the customer not configuring the car instead of the dealer? Is this the norm for Mercedes allocations( unlike Porsche, etc)?
|
+1 change the interior to yellow contrast stitching. The silver looks generic and does not look the quality you pay for. The silver inserts on the seats look absolutely awful. The yellow stands out and looks much better.
|
I agree on the yellow stitching, but ditch the yellow seat belts. Black seatbelts with yellow stitching is a much more classy look.

A car like the ‘Pro’ is a highly individualistic purchase, and as such it should be ordered exactly as the owner wants; not what the dealership believes someone wants. Rant over! lol Bish |
Congrats on the Allocation + Plus Some Thoughts on the Config

- Add the high-end sound system @$4,500. Owner might never use it but it's nice for those few times one is stuck on the highway at rush hour. - I prefer the interior with gray stripes and gray seat belts, but if going with yellow, I agree with the earlier comment to lose the yellow seat belts; I think it would be too jarring. If available, I'd do the red spec but it's not available on the GT R - I might have missed it, but I didn't see one of the door sill plate options - illuminated or carbon fiber. I like illuminated but carbon fiber would look good in this spec. Best would be illuminated carbon fiber (like in my GT3) if available. - I'd keep the Distronic. I've had it on the GT S and in previous AMG cars. In the PRO it has to have an OFF option and best if not able to be shut off only with ESP/TC completely off. I definitely do not tailgate; however, I found on Interstates at higher speeds the minimum allowable following distance was always too great. It was like I had a sign on the car: "OK to pull in right in front of me, that's why I'm leaving so #@&% much space!". That said, I would definitely order it as every likely owner will spend some time on the road vs. track where it can be valuable. |
Putting all the comfort crap on the track car, Nice:y

Porsche don't do this on GT cars - much fewer comfort/lux options available - no park, no M/F steering wheel...... sets the stall out for what it is. |
Nice ! We got ours as well, can't wait to take a delivery.
|
So it sounds like maybe we should add yellow stitching and go with black seatbelts? Nobody thinks green stripe on the outside might clash with yellow stitching on the inside? Also come to think of it not sure you can opt for black seatbelts. Keep the distronic I think is the way to go and possibly add 3D Burmeister. They do have illuminated and carbon fiber door sill covers - not sure which to go with at the moment. Gloss carbon fiber only for the trim, cant go matte except the standard strut tower brace in the back.
|
Do you guys know when the estimated delivery will be? My sales guy tells me spring next year but to be honest, I don't think he has a clue.
|
Well I’m not entirely sure when they will do the release, but our car has a build date in late September. I would hope they would have it out before the end of the year which I’m sure is the common goal. Spring next year sounds wrong, but there have been delays before (E63s, GLC63).

Is there an option to delete the stripes on the exterior?
