Congrats! And welcome to the club. Looks sweet. I always go black. But my second choice is the silver.

You are at the right place to find out everything you need or want to know about your new ride.

Have Fun!

Interior is exceptionally clean...front and rear bumper definitely have some blemishes the dealer was less than thorough in describing. Also needed 4 new tires immediately.

Overall though it was a screaming deal.

FYI,

I just had my entire front end minus fenders and hood removed and refinished with new grills and trim installed also. That job cost me about $2100 and then I had a Suntek clear bra put on everything north of the windshield. Looks Awesome, like brand new! No more rock chips and now protected against them too. I have a 2015 and bought it 3 years old with the rock chips in the front. It was the only cosmetic flaw on the car and annoyed the cr*p out of me so I had the work done. Anyway, just letting you know there are options if you want to spend the cash.

WOW that is really not bad! Was it a local bodyshop that did the repair?

I'm definitely considering it, but dont mind it in its current state too badly either.

It was my local MB dealership collision center! Factory paint and parts. I had gotten rear ended with some damage to the rear bumper and driver's side tail light. So while it was there I asked them what this would cost to do the front end (rock chip damage only). I thought the price was pretty reasonable especially when considering EVERYTHING here in the Silicon Valley is over priced. I actually have a thread on this already. Here it is:
