My rep is out on Fridays. I'm wondering if mine is at the dealer as well...

Since our cars are so similar, ya wouldn't mind if I just drove home in yours? Kidding aside, congrats!

It should be as mine just got there today. Yours was built few days before mine.
Actually our cars are identical with exactly the same options. The only difference being regular black vs obsidian black.

I am going there today to pick up mine.

Congratulations! Is there a reason why you chose the smaller rims? I think the car flows better with the larger wheel options.

Congrats. It is a shame indeed that they put such small rims on the "Sport" Package cars. On the bright side, ride comfort will be better with those than the bigger wheels and since it isn't actually a sportily-intentioned car, you probably won't miss the "sportier" benefits of larger wheels.

On a looks scale, of course the bigger wheels do flow with such a large design.

First time I really noticed the rearview mirror light pattern.

I really like 20 inch wheels but dislike multipolar wheels. If the 5 spoke version came in a 20
Inch - I would have gotten them in a heartbeat. I just couldn't look past the multi-spoke wheels.

I do have the sport package. I pretty much got every package with the exception of the 2 seat version in the rear.

I am very excited. I was thinking about the car at work and couldn't wait for the day to be over so that I can drive it.

Wow! Very nice. Not a big fan of those rims preffer the other AMG rims but still, very nice. I never seen one but have seen a CLA. I guess the people in my town are going to get a white S550 with AMG rims and tinted.
