ETA on ordering avaliability?

If I remember correctly, pricing and the ordering guide for the CLA was available well before it was sold last September.

Anyone have any idea when MB would release pricing and allow folks to start pre-ordering?

Base price was out quickly due to the low price point on the CLA, the production is supposed to start in June in AL, the cars will be pre-spec'd by MBUSA and dropped into our inventories... Customer orders should start in the April/May time frame as the second wave of cars should be ready for specific requests. As for pricing I would say within 60-90 days of official launch they should announce pricing so the first or second round of customers will be ordering blindly like most of the initial CLA45 orders.

MBUSA rewards the early adopters by putting packages together at discounted prices. I purchased a 2012 C204 the month they were released and received an extra $1000 of options at no cost. The car came with multimedia, six CD changer and rear camera for $1000 less than the retail price. You just need to have the SA look through the available inventory in your area to see what is available and be flexible.

So your final price was $1000 below msrp? Or did you work them down from msrp minus $1000?

MBUSA priced the options a total of $1000 less for the early inventory that they optioned. The prices went back up to normal a short time later. i do not know how long but I think it was only a short while. There was a special option code on the sticker.

Hey guys

I am working with my dealer and I am currently second on the list to receive an allocation for an order for the 2015 C-Class. My dealer said they will start production in June and I will be able to order my car in may and that I am second on the list to receive an allocation for a build. I had to put down a $1,000 deposit as well. I have the preliminary information that Mercedes has sent to the dealers with options information if anyone would like to see it!

The 2014 C300 is $39,400.

Maybe a slight price reduction?

How do you know how much it is? I am just wondering because my dealer didn't even have an exact number.

That's the price for the current 2014. If your dealer is right, the 2015 should be the same price, or maybe even a few hundred less (unlikely).

The C400 is replacing the C350 and the new C300 is replacing the C250 and the "old" C300 is being phased out.

Other than the engine, the new c300 is pretty much on par with the old c300 being 4matic and 'almost' the same horsepower, so I suspect pricing would indeed be similar to the current c300. BUT, a rear wheel drive version is supposedly going to be available in Q1 2015, which would be the "truest" C250 replacement.

Very interested in what kind of savings can be had for a -non- 4matic c300.

Alex, if the information includes preliminary pricing I'd sure like to see it. The dealer here isn't admitting to even having an allocation list
