Hi lboudreau... any more pictures to share with us? Until my ML arrives I must live vicariously off of your sweet ride (I am sure others feel the same). Appreciate it.

Yes, the MBTex dash is such an upgrade for the money. Love the satin wood - don't know why most Euro wood trim looks like plastic. This is what I have on order.

Pano roof holdup

Just heard from my SA. My 2012 order was held up because of the pano roof hold up - I was told today that my delivery will be in August and will be a 2013.

My order date was 29 March; I never received a build date because of the pano roof hold up. I was told I could probably get a June build day if I dropped the pano..but decided to hang tight on it. After my exchanges with you, I emailed my SA with my thoughts and concerns about the hold and got this response. I'm am actually pleased if this is really the case... although, I still want to be driving it now.

I also forgot to mention on my original post that I added Ventilated seats to my ML as well. I first thought it might just be a waste of money, but they really do work well!

Have you had a chance to take some more pictures?

Scurrie, I see you have the sports package. Can you tell me what that really contains and the cost? I don't see it on the Mercedes ML 350 build site.
