LED headlights and full LED tail lights. The headlights automatically adjust the beam of light for the best visibility. They turn with you in a slight curve and they have built in cornering lights when you go to make a turn. They come on with the turn of the wheel or when you activate the turn signal. Plus the daytime running lights are the 'eyebrow' type.

The reason you do not have the amber section on your units is because the amber portion is required for the US DOT.

Very nice. I gotta remember to tell the dealer NOT to drill into the bumper for a plate. I'll take my chances with the local LEO's.

Jason, those are the standard (non-upgraded) wheels for all GLC 300 4M's in Canada. Did you order different rims? And doesn't the open pore wood cost 250$ more than the high gloss ones? I hope the dealer refunded you on this.

Nonetheless, looks smart! I ended up getting the same colour combination with the same rims!

back in December i was shown the choice between the 20 spoke amg rims and stock rims that looked like this


and i chose the stock rims. yes the open pore cost $250 more which i was willing to pay for but the salesman entered gloss trim instead of open pore trim even though i told him i wanted open pore. the sales person that ordered my GLC for me was Mark o'mahony he was fired from lexus before MB and has since been fired from MB too so if you see him at any other car dealer around town steer far far away!

what interior color did you get?

Those rims are also AMG styling rims. The rims appear to be listed as $0.00 but to get them, you have to have the "Sport Styling Package". It's an extra $1500 for that package. The 20 spoke rims require several packages and an extra $500 on top. I didn't like the 10-spoke stock rims that we both ended up getting because it reminds me of the Honda Civic rims but the alternatives wern't worth the extra $. I plan to get winter tires with alloy rims anyways.

I ended up getting black imitation leather interior. I would love to get beige but I'm pretty worried that it won't look so great in the long run with colour rubbing off. I got the premium package, like you. I added on a trailer hitch, a heads-up-display and active LED lighting package.

Car arrived at dealer, look at the rear bumper, are those bugs? Don't they ship these cars enclosed?

If they had to put it on a car carrier, which I am sure they did, to get it from the dock to the Dealership, then it was on there with the rear facing forward. Typical
