New C63 Orders

[jackwood]

Hi,
Has anyone put a deposit down or placed an order for a new C63 yet?
Looking at replacing our E63 estate with another C63 estate when the lease is up in a few months time.
Timing would actually work out quite well with the proposed release date of the new car.

Yes, by the time mine was delivered they had stopped the deal that I got.
Hoping they will have some nice lease deals on the C63 when it launches.
The size of the E63 is great for the family, but without a locking diff it telly struggles to put the power down and it's not as fun to hustle along.
New C63 looks great, but it's a pricy piece of kit now. Especially in S form.

Had a personal lease quote of Mercedes this week.

6+23 10k pa

Works out at £755 per month on non-s C63 estate.

They aren't quite the deals you could get on a C63 a few years ago, are they?

Nope. My A45 is costing £640 pcm over 4 years with £6k down. This new turbo tech comes at a price it seems.

GLA45 is pretty cheap on a 2 year lease at the moment.

The new stuff definitely isn't cheap at the minute - there are a few good deals about though; I've got a list of E63's with some additional money on that makes them look like relative bargains!

Anything close to the 6+23 £475+vat 10k pa personal lease I have on my current E63? It goes back in June, hence looking for a replacement.
Please feel free to DM me.
Cheers

Matc - Same here, my E63 goes back in June and I'm wondering what to get next. I managed to get the same deal as Jackwood and would probably repeat it again if it was offered, but this time I think I'd want a proper diff.

Any chance of a group buy?!

Have you been bombarded with emails, letters and calls about what you want to do when your lease is up?

Have you enquired about extending the lease on its current terms? For, say 12 months?

Looking around there is nothing even remotely approaching the kind of deal we got. Wouldn't mind keeping the car a bit longer if the lease could be extended.

[jackwood]

Fantastic!
Any discount?
And with 19's and the seats, were you not getting close to the S price?
I'd Specced up the blue with the blackout kit and black wheels....

[jackwood]

Never heard of wow so giving it a go.
So far discounts on an estate are coming back at less than £2k

Strange, as there is better dealer contribution discount available on the official MB website, I think.

Really looking forward to seeing launch reviews in a few weeks time. And of course delivery cars that you guys are going to be getting in May!

[jackwood]

Same here. Would keep it a while longer if the deal was the same as it's a lot of car for the money (at the price we got). But otherwise not loving it like I did the C63 estate. Not sure what it is. It sounds great, drives ok, but is just too big to be fun.

Would go for a new C63 in a heartbeat if they were the same price as the old C63. But lack of deals (especially given current euro exchange rate) and having experience of C63 depreciation is putting me off committing to an order just now.

More fun than an M5?

I placed an order in October for a c63 in black with 19" wheels, premium pack and a few other bits.
it's on a 2 yr lease to replace my c63 coupe that went back last month.
I've been told that it will be built this week and it has an expected delivery date to me mid march.

interestingly the new c63 will be built in South Africa.

I initially wanted the c63s , but the quote was just too much.

maybe I had a good deal on my last 2 c63's.

Seems that you really have to pay up for the new technology.

So you placed an order for a new-shape C63 in October and its coming in March?

If so, would you mind sharing the lease info?

Lol, yep, i have been bombarded, inc a text on friday night asking what i was doing with my car. I did request a 6 month extension quote. That doubled my monthly payments but the lower final payment meant it would cost me an extra £650 if i bought in 6 months rather than now.

That must be on a PCP then. I am on a straightforward lease.

I es told yesterday that as long as you have an order in on a new Merc they will continue/extend your lease until the new car is delivered.

Given that AMG's tend to be 20-30 week leadtime I might just order a new car close to the expiration date of the current car and stretch my current lease out until the new one arrives.
