C63 Final spec....I think.

[bobbersmill]

After thinking I was going to get a rather basic spec C63 it seems that has gone out the window.
So subject to final figures I will be adding
PP+
LSD, still couldnt see any benefit after driving a PP+ car with no LSD but I think I am going to bow to the wisdom of some of thhe owners on here and go for the LSD.
Command
Cup holders
Rear side window blinds
19s
Inteligent lights
That little lot puts an extra 9.5k on the car. although im only really paying for 2.5k of it so not so painful.
I was going to bin the PP+ but the reality is that it will only cost an extra £120/month as it increases the GFV so may as well have it.
I am going to go with Irridium Silver as I think it softens the impact of all the chrome bits (not a fan) and blends perfectly with the amg 19s.
Many thanks for all the advice to date. Great forum.

Hi if you like your music the harman karden sounds much better than the normal stereo

Dont Don, Im still iffing and butting about the bloody LSD
I had Bose in my C4s and to be honest I never had it up loud enough to notice, I actually tended to turn the volume down to listen to the engine and after listening to the C63s engine tone I think the windows will be open constantly.

Heated washers?

Trust me -- it wont......I would put that way up the list....

I thought they were standard on all new MBs nowadays.

Anyway, if they're not I'd certainly get them. You could make it a deal clincher and tell them you don't want the car unless it has them.

what about amg mates to keep the car clean lol

heated washer, cup holders, rear blinds.... does make you smile really items that should be standard and are on cars costing the amount your extras are adding up to


ooh well

 

[Alps]

phone prep is also a must + sunroof, rear blinds also as sun really does beam through the back (even with tints)

Do they have to be worn for safe driving too ??

Sunroof and bluetooth are standard its just the wiring for a armrest cradle thats extra as far as I am aware.

A good spec bobbersmill...well done on deciding on the LSD!

IMO, the only other thing I would urge you to reconsider is HK audio upgrade. As The_Don has already said, it is very good and the basic radio is very average. I say this to you especially as you say you've had Bose before...even if you don't crank up the volume, don't underestimate how much better these upgraded systems sound even at normal volumes. If you hadn't had an upgraded audio before then I really wouldn't have bothered mentioning this.

Anyway, I've said my piece but whatever you decide, you're going to have a cracking (if increasingly common ) car!

If you have an iPhone, then don't fek up like I have and rely on the MB Bluetooth. It doesn't transfer contacts s basically you can make/receive calls but to dial out to need to manually know and type in the number. Shyate!

Will ordinary mates do, I have Romanski, Polak and Chavsky who are up for it.
AMG MATS have been thrown in for free.

 

[bobbersmill]

Okay I have now done it, final, final spec phoned through done dusted!
Irridium silver, PP+, LSD, Cup holders, rear side blinds, Intel lights, heated washer, 19s, HK, command.
I am also taking advantage of the pick up trip aswell.
So there you have it. Many, many thanks to all who have expressed opinions you have actually cost me over 4k but thanks as I should now have a car that will cover everything I need and if anyone says "have you thought about birds eye maple" I guarantee I will swear!
