Greetings, I've just placed an order for a 2025 GT 55. In the order book there are two options that dealer says are not showing up in the system (I spec'd the performance seats):

409 - Additional adjustability for AMG Performance Seats - Requires AMG Performance Seats (555); Omits standard Multicontour Seats w/ Massage
942 - Load Compartment Package - All Models

Has anyone with the performance seats gotten the additional adjustability pack? Is the load compartment pack now standard?[/code][/code]

Hi, I just got delivery of my GT55 with performance seats. I tried to spec the additional adjustability but it showed up as "409 - Multi-Contour Front Seats" in my final build, which shouldn't be possible with performance seats based on the order guide. So perhaps try to get your dealer to add the 409 option and it will work. (To be honest I don't know exactly how to check whether I have "additional" adjustability on my seats, but there seems to be a lot of options for side bolsters, etc.).
As far as load compartment I believe that is a mandatory option now. I didn't spec it but it showed up anyway for $300. The dealer said he couldn't remove it.

Thank you sir. More helpful than the dealer! Did you post pics of your GT anywhere? Congrats!

Could you describe exactly what the Load Compartment Package includes?

This is what the online configurator says:

Thoughtful storage amenities include a movable load floor, a 12-volt power socket, and a variety of stowage nets in the cabin and trunk.

This is my first Mercedes purchasing experience and so far it’s been unimpressive. I’m trying to spend about $160 grand and they can’t even tell me how to order what I want. This is bush league.

It's been like that for years. Covid excuses, yet other brands seem to have gotten past it. Mercedes order process still disorganized and quite complicated. Fingers crossed you get what you ordered. Let's make it as difficult as possible for people to spend their money.

I moved on from that dealer unfortunately. They were good pre-sale but post sale was not inline with the premium experience I was looking for. Such as being able to order the options I want as described above. Not exactly an unreasonable request. Thanks for the insight. Either way I’m in the club and happy to be here!
