Dealer Info Guide for MY2015 CLS Series

This is what the dealers are working from since June. Once all prices are announced, they'll start taking production orders for MY15, though dealers will be happy to write up a sales order now w/o firm prices. I'm going to wait until the full introduction of MY15 before placing my order because I'm not in a rush and acting now won't speed up delivery much, anyway.

Some new colors being added as well as some new interior options such as diamond-stitch and some two-tone color combos. New rims, too.

Thank you for posting that! Jealous that the CLS gets diamond stitch as an option (while Es do not). It's going to be a great car!

Don't see any mention of CF Exterior pack for USA cars (maybe they just didn't put it in the DOG yet).

Night Styling Pack is much more proper than the E-Class of 2014. Window frames, door handle tops, and grille louver is now all black in addition to the other parts on the bottom of the car.

Actually, they'll be standard on the AMG but the full version has yet to be approved by the D.O.T. so who knows if we'll ever get it. The AMG won't have the 9-speed - yet.

What upsets me is the fact that Magno Alanite Grey isn't listed, although Sintered Bronze Matte is. I was planning on ordering the matte Alanite. I'm hoping they'll still offer the ALanite matte.

Me, too, but against silver I'd want black.

Keep in mind this is just the regular CLS ordering guide. For instance, I'm ordering a designo paint/interior/trim on a 15 E. The regular E ordering guide came out for the full model line and it only listed the regular paints and interior finishes, however, the dealer ordering has opened. When I saw the list of options on the dealer's computer, it still showed the old designo options from the previous model year so I am still able to order colors not listed on the ordering guide. The E ordering guide only shows the "rebranded" designo paints such as Diamond White and Cardinal Red while the "true" designo paints were still available.

However, since the CLS is going under a major facelift it is possible that MB has restructured their designo offerings. I hope they don't, though. I'd hold out for the CLS63 specific ordering guide which generally arrives a few weeks after the guide for the whole range. That one usually goes into more detail about special options.

Otherwise you can always order a one-off color from MB. Cost to paint a new MB from the factory in any regular MB paint is about $5,500 while painting your MB in any designo paint is about $8,000-10,000.

True, it is a general guide for the CLS range and not model specific so it will all be revealed eventually. Worst case, if they don't offer Magno Alanite Grey, I can always get Diamond Silver or Iridium Silver and get it wrapped in clear, matte film. Similar money and you protect the paint. Won't feel as nice to the touch but I'll live with it or else live with one of the silvers unwrapped.
