I ordered mine on Sep 12. Orginally dealer said build date in November but now it has been pushed back to December and will take delivery in Jan 2008.

My order: Fully-loaded C350 with 18 AMG rims, premium Pkg and leather upgrade

The waiting game is not fun at all...

Ordered mine (350 4matic) in Toronto on Oct 13th. Was told that delivery would not be until Feb/Mar. Doesn"t have 18" rim as an option. Need to buy separately.

Update:

Just find out from my dealer my car build date December 2.2007
They advise me delivery date end of December 2007

I think it will be middle of January 2008, because from Germany to Canada (Halifax) 30 days transit time

Very disappointed

tashkent, thanks for the advice.

Secondly, when did you order your C350 and from which dealer?

2008 - S550 4Matic, 2010 - E350 4Matic, 2010 - C350 4Matic
I just happen to visit my dealership on August 20.2007. He told me that he just received the information about the new C-Class. From the preliminary information that he had, we selected a C350 - Sport - 4Matic, Premium Package, Panorama roof, key-less go. He told me that the 18" wheel upgrade could delay my order and I stuck with the 17"AMG wheels. Since we had no colour charts, we stuck with the iridium silver and black interior.

I remember, he sat down on his computer and placed my order, turned around to me and said: "Done !!!"

I took delivery on October 25.2007.

Discounts are hard to come by and when you read the long waiting list you know why. $ 2,500.00 cash discount is a huge discount. Here most people get $ 500.00. I wouldn't be surprised, if even the $ 500.00 has disappeared. I can hear them: do you want one or not?

I am very happy with my dealership and they way I get treated here.

Jorg

O..you guys already negotiate the discount when you order the car?? My dealer told me do not worry about the price until one month before delivery.

Order my C350 With MM Beginning of Oct and they said Build date for Feb and delivery for March. I bought @ Vaughan MB and no discounts, zero.
Can I ask for discount when I go to pick the car up and finalize paper work??

If you got discount please put what dealership.

seems like april or june actually works better for the 350 or the 350 4matic as they only come with all season performance....

4matic yeah, you might be able to get away with it, but on a RWD 350, forget it, the all season just didn't cut it...I don't know if the new C has the comfort mode (snow a.k.a. slow mode) and by end of dec, most benz dealers will be out of snow tires anyway, and you can argue that you DON"T need snow tires, but as everyone knows already, the cost is already worth it if you could avoid 1 accident, and you are talking about a brand new car....

so IMO, a spring / early summer delivery is actually better....
