It's taken a while...
But I have drawn the personal conclusion that M-Bs' C205 AMG 63 is the brands' most exciting sedan-based 2+2 coupe. The C238 being too spec-sensitive, visually "soft" and often nondescript, the C217 often appearing bland (relative to its' market segment) in non-AMG specification or excessively juvenile in some "Special Edition Packages", the C205 hits many of the right buttons without being pretentious.
Daimler-Benz CEO Dr. Dieter Zetsche has recently alluded to a future streamlining of M-Bs' 2 door, 2+2 coupe/cabriolet offerings.
Dr. "Z", keep the C !! And don't let Herr Wagener excessively "jellybean" its' successor.

...still appealing in the far less "pumped" AMG C43 version:

MBUSA shows the 19" 10 spokes as a $500 option in the configurator now?

It is the same crappy practice from MB Australia, we cannot select any wheels off the production line, it has to be done at the dealership pre delivery. Why have all these choices when customers aren't allowed to pick any of them.

Because MB Australia has removed all choice and customisation in the hope of standardising their production allocation and increase their margins. There’s very little scope for individuality and the brand is very mass market now.

Furious Serbian owner publicly shames his own C-Class Coupé
Strange show in the streets of Belgrade! People gathered around a Mercedes-Benz C-Class Coupé to see how the owner, a Serbian business man, complains about the services of the three-pointed star company.
The furious owner of the coupe took his car to the streets of the Serbian capital and displayed the messages he had stuck onto the body. “Mercedes is trash, 30,000 km clutch set not supported by warranty” is the text that he tried to get his message across by.
The Serbian customer claims that his car got a fault clutch at 30,000 kilometers (18,600 miles). And that was not it, as the white coupe also suffered a faulty starter at 13,000 kilometers (8,000 miles). None of the faults was covered by warranty, so the Mercedes-Benz subsidiary refused to cover costs for the replacement of the defective parts, claiming improper use. The owner, of course, has a different perspective, so he wished to show it.

That's a clever way of shaming a manufacturer for giving you a lemon. Never seen that before.
