Congrats. Post photos when it arrives. BTW, is MB giving discounts on it. Were you able to haggle with them on the price?

Congrats!
I believe that the new gas engine has more HP. I'd be interested in how it feels. MB is still listing the same acceleration on their web site, but that can't be right.

Congratulations OP
I saw one of these for the first time this morning, it is very nice in white. It drew my attention because of the exhaust tips, then I noticed the taillights. Probably was an '11 model, but my first time seeing the updates and I must say it looks impressive.

Just an update...... the R is supposed to arrive in 2 days and I will be picking it up some time next week. So far I've gotten the lease payments down to $397.00 /mo with my 08 as trade-in and a negotiable $28k buy out at the end of the lease. MSRP for the car was $62k.....IIRC my calculations show that i bought the '12 car for $56K - lease payments => $40.5k hopefully i can negotiate more i come in to finalize the deal.

Nice R!! Love it in white. For some reason, I think the R looks best in the lighter colors (white, palladium, iridium, etc) because it shows off its lines better and to contrast the pano roof. It also looks very good next to the W164, which also looks nice but dated next to the R.
