New S212 AMG purchase, what to include in contract?

Anything in particular that people here would recommend as part of a new purchase?

I'm not sure if prepaid service is available/worth it for this vehicle.

Extended warranty at time of purchase?

I'm coming from Audi, so i always ask to have them include "Audi Care" at the time of purchase in addition to all OEM season/winter mats and trunk liner.

If you are in calgary, good luck getting one. As far as I am aware, you can't order one for even march production. It is blocked off by mb Canada. There is a waiting list of 3-5 people at lonestar. I don't know about Hyatt.

I paid full price. Not a penny off.

Get the wheel/tire insurance, A Must! Cost around $1000-1200, good for three years. Pre-paid maintenance? I'm not sure if it's an option on AMG cars, I tried to get it, cost around $20 month addition on lease, but dealer told me it was not accepted when they sent paperwork to Mercedes.

what does the wheel/tire insurance cover? i'd only be interested if it covers rim rash from me brushing a curb or something.

thanks for the tip.

Diamond white.

Car is getting some work done. Will have more picks at the end of the week.

I only drove it 3 days before dropping it off at the shop.

Just reading through some threads and I came across this one. Sorry to hijack the thread it but why would ordering a MB be "blocked off by MB Canada?"

Good luck on ordering the car.

Meaning the car is not orderable. MB Canada is not accepting orders for the car at all.

Obsidian Black/Grey. Wheel/Tire insurance covers all damage, repair or replace for three years, no deductible. I was told the forged wheels cost $2K to replace! IMO, well worth $1200.
