I don't know if I would pay the current price for the key, but I may end up changing my mind, if my parents want it for their cars.

New 2007 Style Key Ordered
So, I had an early release today from school so I drove down to Route 1 to the Verizon Store to get my phone fixed or a replacement because mine broke. And since I was already in the neighborhood, after I dropped my phone off, I drove down to Flagship Mercedes and ordered a new style key for my car, as well as checking out some of the nice C55s. I almost cried when I drove my car off the lot, haha just kidding. The key totaled in at $118 (wholesale price) and the guy said that they'll have it in 2-3 days.

Another example of how useful the SEARCH function is.
Come on, Newbies. It really isn't that difficult.

But, if you went to the dealer to get the key, what do you ask to get it? I've heard many dealers won't sell extra keys for security reasons, but from a lot of what I've been reading about this key, it seems like other dealers just want to make a quick buck and they sell it anyways. So do you just ask for an additional key, or a replacement key?
Thanks!

Not to sound redundant, but I don't feel like sifting through 13 pages of this thread to get my answer.

Do not ask for a replacement key, because they'll give you a key that is programmed to wipe out all other keys in existence as soon as you plug it into the ignition. I walked right into the parts department and asked to order a spare key, and then told them to get me the updated 2007 style. No problems at all, just make sure you have registration and driver's license.
Thanks kevblah!
