07/23/2021 update:

As you are aware, MBUSA is experiencing challenges with the availability of semiconductor components due to the worldwide shortage. This has caused the addition and/or removal of certain options on vehicles. A summary of the changes is below:
Removal of Burmester 3D Surround Sound System (810), HANDS-FREE ACCESS (871)

Hopefully, this is a temporary challenge. I would like to have those 2 options on the new C-Class. The car isn't due here in the US until next year so perhaps the issue will be resolved by then? Time will tell.

Also, why would MBUSA be experiencing the challenges? Mercedes Benz is a German car manufacturer. I would think the challenge is originating there, and the effect may be felt by MBUSA?

You might want to Google "computer chip shortage" to get up to speed on the computer chip shortage that is not only plaguing Mercedes-Benz but the entire auto industry.

Thanks for the updated guide! Any idea when the online configurator will be available in the US? And, do we pretty much expect to pay MSRP for these vehicles?

Probably next year. Cars won't arrive until early 2022.
Hard to say, and depends on your relationship with your dealer. It's probably harder to get a discount nowadays though.

The computer chip shortage is really having a negative impact on supply. I drove by my local MB dealer the other day and their lot was almost empty. In normal times, it was always over stuffed with cars.

I don't know, perhaps a question for MBUSA?

So what do you get in place of Burmester? A cassette player? 8 track? A boombox?

I guess whatever is standard. There is another sound system, "Advanced Sound System", that is above the standard system, but below the Burmester. I don't think that is being offered on the new C.

2019 C Class
It's not just Mercedes...it's virtually all car dealerships in the city where I live. And, they are marking vehicles up from the MSRP because of the shortages in inventory.

I ordered a '22 C Class in August and was told that production would start in January. The dealer just told me last week that production will not start now until March. I am weighing my options and just may cancel the order at this point. My current lease will be up in December, and I was told that I could extend it month to month, but it may be too much of an uncertainty at this point to do that.

While only you know what's best for your situation, my advise would be that it's probably not a good time to be buying a new car unless you absolutely have to. The chip shortage is a major problem that likely won't be getting any better until 2023. Maybe your best option just might be to buy the car you're currently leasing and then in a couple of years when the chip shortage finally eases, you can buy new at that time. Just a suggestion.

More cuts have been made recently for the new C-Class:

  • Removal of Standard USB package (75B - Includes 2 additional USB ports in the center console) until MY23 production. 1 USB port will remain. The Advanced USB package (72B $300) remains available for ordering with limited capacity.
  • HANDS-FREE ACCESS (871) and Inductive Wireless Charging & NFC Pairing (897) are no longer available until MY23 production.

Do you have an updated Ordering Guide? MY23 production? Any idea what month that will start next year?

Not sure what month it will start exactly. Probably sometime during Q3 or Q4.
