My C4S arrived at the dealer...
My sale consultant just email me some pictures of my car as it arrived at the dealership. Everything looks good but I am trying to warm up to the wheels. Should I ask to swap out and put in the standard wheels? Now I just have to wait for a decent weather day to pickup the car. It is 5 hours away in Schnectady NY and I need a dry 50+ degree day. I don't trust max performance tires in cold days.

The tires will be FINE, especially if the road isn't frozen. The car and tires are brand new; you have no business beating on it anyway. Go get it!

I have to give you credit for having the ***** to go with the red accent on the interior. It looks fantastic with the deviated stitching. Great job on the interior selection. I would ditch those wheels and have the dealer swap them for the 5 spoke Classic wheels, they are the same price option.

Actually I didn't order the car this way. My dealer located couple of guard red C4S and recommended this one due its unique interior. I took the chance and very happy with my decision. You guys are right, the wheels just does not do it for me. Are you the same H-Man from www.mbworld.org?

Thanks. I love the red center console. That maybe the first mod I will do.

Center console makes all the difference
You've got a great looking car there. Love the GR. Wheels are tight too!

Eric at Bumperplugs.com can set you up with painted bits - better than OEM, no question:
