Keep in mind that the MY18 has a paltry 329 hp .... your MY19 is tuned for more hp and torque ... everything has a price ... lol

E53 Cab released today ??
FYI
My sales person e-mailed to say that my E53 Cab was released today.
I hope he is correct.

2019 Dune Silver Metallic E-450 Mercedes Cabriolet NEW Mercedes 2020 GLC300 graphite gray SUV
I know you asked this way earlier. Just got my E450 Cabriolet this week (WOO WOO) and can confirm that both the steering wheel and the seats both move in easy exit/enter. Pretty neat!

$99,999 is only a placeholder until actual pricing is announced.
The reason for the fuzziness is that I compressed the file heavily after redacting it and converting it to a .JPG.
Here is what my actual order looked like. Since the car is coming with summer tires, I will probably leave about $4,000 at the parts window for a set of staggered snow tires, rubber floor mats, and a tire fit kit.
The philosophy of this build is stealth. To be fast, comfortable, and not noticed. The only color is a splash of brown on the seats and the wood trim. There is as little chrome trim as possible and the badges will go away.
Sorry about any bragging. I'm a little frustrated waiting for the car to work its way through the VPC and onto a truck.

Never understood the concept of debadging. You don't want people to know you're driving a Mercedes?

Why would you want to make a beautiful car such as yours stealth? If you're doing it because of Johnny law, with Multistatic radar units out there, it makes it's a moot point now.

I too like the clean, de-badged look. I tried to order mine de-badged from the factory, but it wasn’t possible. My dealer will remove the badges when the car arrives. It’s easy to do and there is no trace afterwards. I had the C400 badging removed from my current car and was very happy with my decision.

As to rusty's question about why "stealth," reasons likely vary from owner to owner. I prefer an understated exterior. One time driving a BMW 7, I stopped at a crosswalk for a young woman who slowed her walk, looked at the car, and gave me the finger. Not provoking any of the widespread and growing resentment towards presumed inequality is a minor factor, but it's at least back of mind. Mainly, I'm also not a car guy in the sense of caring a whole lot about exterior appearance. I get why others do care, and I enjoy their delight at the styles, colors, wheels, and treatments they've poured their hearts into. For me, the interior matters big-time, the outside not so much.
But like I said, reasons vary. For example: Years ago I spent a few days hanging out with Carroll Shelby. He loved nothing better than rolling up to a stoplight in some stealthily unassuming American car, and finding a young buck in a tricked out import revving his engine alongside. You know what happened next.

Ceramic Coating
Has anyone ceramically coated their new Mercedes? If so what were the costs and are you happy with the results? I ordered a Black AMG E53 and I am trying to determine the best way to keep it looking great without damaging the paint or handwashing constantly.
