MY17 GLE ordering guide?

Has anyone seen a copy of the MY17 GLE ordering guide? I was told my dealer they're replacing Lunar blue with Brilliant blue. I'm interested to see what else is changing. My salesman is nice and has helped find lots of options\colors for me to see\touch. He's not a tech guy though, so I don't have much confidence in him finding all the options. I would love to have a comprehensive list before placing an order. Any ideas when MB usually updates the online builder with the next MY?

I just emailed my salesman to see if he had any info. My car is due in June but if it's not a terribly long wait for MY17 I'll wait so I can do the brilliant blue. Should look incredible!
I'll report back if I learn anything.

Spoke to MB customer service. It appears that for '17 brilliant will replace lunar blue.
There is also a restructuring of packages, was told premium 1,2&3 then there will be some stand alone. Only new option mentioned was night package. Supposedly that's it.

Oh, I can't post the DOG... since two yrs ago it kicked up some bad juju with corporate...

GLE450 Coupe and C300w4
Cardinal Red and Brilliant Blue are the two colors I wanted for my 16 Coupe, if they had been available. This is why I'm glad I lease. :-)

+1 on the 9-speed tranny

1) LTE / 4G for COMMAND?? This is years overdue.
2) Mercedes Me app to that was released in Europe, to replace the Verizon Telematics mbrace app?

Anyone know when the MY'17 should start arriving?
Thinking about cancelling my order (due in June) and waiting for brilliant blue.

If there is ANY chance of getting rid of mbrace, I'd cancel my order and wait however long it takes.

My dealer said 4g is coming but didn't know when. It's not mentioned in the '17 order guide.

My ordered build is supposed to be completed by July 14 and I'm told that delivery to my dealership takes about three or four weeks. So I guess they should be arriving soon!

Any update on this? I was told the GLE 400 would have the 9G-Tronic. Thoughts or verification?

Hi fabbrisd1
Can you provide any info from the DOG regarding the 9G-tronic transmission? Can you email me the latest DOG for MY17 GLE? Very interested in buying the 2017 GLE400 but would love to see more details. Thanks for your time and help.

Understood. Thanks.
Instead of posting or emailing, can you verify if the 9G-Tronic will be in the 2017 GLE 400? If not, i understand.
Thx.

Thats a good question. Also if the 9G is in the GLE350 that would be nice to know in advance... especially since all these summer event deals are going on, would like to know whether its worth it to wait for 2017.

I just received my PO from my sales rep today. Ordered a 2017 GLE 400. Looks like it will have the 9G-Tronic and the LTE.

I wish the 450 was a option here in California. We only have the GLE 400. The 43 and 63 are way out of my price range.
