Glad to hear she has arrived, and it looks great! Come to think of it I have not seen one lately that does not look great! Stay safe and let the modding begin!

Haha..I was going to msg you on the 31st to see if your dealer updated you. MB loves to wholesale/invoice "Exclusive" models on the last day of the month! Even-though the VPC/Port is working on a light crew and limited processing capacity, they sure have been quick on getting cars thru the port these days!

By the way...your G63 looks beautiful!! Congrats!!!

Yeah it got invoiced on March 31st. I was told that VPC is running on a skeleton crew right now. For some reason it sat in that “released to Truck” state for I know 3 days after docking on the 26th. Took my wife for a scroll this evening and she almost fell out of it while getting out because she wasn’t used to being so high. That G Manufautur handle is there for a reason 😂

The white stitching complements the interior




So glad I went with the carbon fiber instead on that piano black

Good idea...I plan to get rid of all the chrome to include emblems, wheel center cap stars and even the airbag star. And I look forward to seeing how well they match the paint on the spare cover!

As per the 2020 Order Guide:

AMG Performance Steering Wheel in Carbon Fiber/DINAMICA (L6H) Option price: $900 Only w/ G manufaktur Black Piano Lacquer trim (ZG2) or AMG Carbon Fiber trim (ZG6)

Check your build sheet but just because you selected the CF trim does not mean you get the CF wheel.
