I will wait until the vehicle is in the driveway and then either open a bottle of LR Cristal or a vintage Chateau Latour/Margaux. Dang, I felt like I went 15 rounds a lost the decision.

In the early stage it is purchase the vehicle or wait and hope the residuals increase over time.

55SWF6EB1GU109129 - Mercedes-Benz of Westminster, CO - Black / Black Leather w/ Red accents / Carbon Fiber Trim $65,765 (+ $599 mark up)

55SWF6EB9GU109833 - Mercedes-Benz of Westminster, CO - Polar White / Black Leather w/ Red accents / Natural Grain Black Ash wood $60,250 (+ $599 mark up)

My pricing in Cincinnati was $2,000 off MSRP, plus an additional $2,000 off for fleet discount. I would definitely hold off until the dealer has a dose of reality.

Anyone actually order different colored seatbelts? I got an updated build sheet saying it costs $500 now for silver.. previously it was simply tacked on without any extra cost. I saw that the open pore black ash is now renamed to "natural grain black ash wood" too and costs $325 extra.

Yep, both of those prices (and the rename) sound right...

I'm so mad/sad that you guys have "AMG Performance Seats" as an option. Canada doesn't have that

Great news! After such a long wait it will be nice to finally have it.

Mine was "RELEASED TO CARRIER" on 9/16 then "RETAILER SHIPPED" on 9/22. My salesperson said they usually get the car in a day or so once it's on the truck but nothing yet. Hoping it arrives in the next day or so.

Nice!

The one in front of mine finally showed up at the dealer today (it was on the same slow boat from Alabama that iwork4wine's was on ).

Mine went D5 "RELEASED TO CARRIER" today (blew right past D4 which was the state that the first build group sat in, in Baltimore for so long).
