I've got a C63S Cab in Selenite grey (and very happy indeed with it) - saw the matte version on the high street locally last week. It looked fantastic too. Wasnt aware it was available yet so may have been a wrap? Either way, you've ordered a lovely spec.

Cheers all. Ticking off the first 1000 miles with a round trip from Hampshire to Yorkshire and NW over the next week. Can't wait.

3 months waiting and its finally arrived. Previously owned a C63s estate, and whilst this is still on the running in phase there are some really noticeable differences. Gearbox: none of the previous clunkiness pulling away from standstill. Much improved. Rear setup: I know the coupe...

I ordered a C63s cab back in April and pick up tomorrow - so it's not a block that has affected the ragtops. The fact that they've offered you a car meantime is better than most dealers I suspect. I'd bite their arm off.

Thanks all - I'm inclined to the standard seats with airscarf - and am now armed with a reason to debate the final price a little more. The other downside of the sports seats is when I have my 12 year old daughter in the car her head knocks straight into the metal sections so has to sit in the...

Any C63 (W205) owners with the standard AMG seats out there? Many reviews suggest they are more comfortable than the optioned AMG Sports seats but with the just the same amount of 'keep your backside pinned in the seat' capabilities. Would appreciate any views on them too? It seems that...

I have a 2015 W205 C63S estate currently with the AMG sports seats. Brilliant car and great seats albeit the fake cutaways for a harness are a bit silly despite me liking the look of them. However for various reasons I am due to swap this out for a convertible (same car - C63S) shortly and...

Sheer muppetry on my part no doubt but hunting around the AMG Academy site takes me to broken links and non existent online forms - anyone have a telephone number for them so I can book? Also - its not entirely clear to me whether I can take my own car (C63S Wagon) - that would be my preference.

Any owners out there managed to successfully load a bike into the boot of a C Class Cabriolet with the rear seats folded down - without having to load through an opened roof? Is it a 'both wheels off' job?

You'd be taking one for the team there Dave! ;)

Nov 2015 C63S Wagon - W205

OK - pretty sure this confirms my software needs updating. I'm not getting any options at all when in the 'dynamic select' section - I just get to choose between the various options for Engine, Gearbox, ESP etc.

Thanks - I've had a look in the menus and cant find anything like that. I may be just having a muppet moment but I don't think so. My sense is that there may be a software update that I am due? I would ask the dealer but they're notoriously useless (especially my local at Southampton). Anyone...

I don't think so - no CarPlay connection on this system (again - that I am aware of) and I'm not sure it offers telematics anyhow?

Any ideas how to access this screen shown in the attached pic? I have the same car (C63S - albeit the wagon) and have never seen an option to display anything other than Media, Nav, Radio, Car Settings etc Is this something bespoke to the cabriolet? Looks like rev/speed information. Not really...
