They know when, where and what. You are dealing with dishonest people. IMHO

Sooo, I visited my dealership today to check what's going on with my order. I was number 9 on the list but I guess I showed up the right moment. The SA told me they just got a new building-slot (4 B or W or something like that..
, don't remember the exact name) and they could basically build any car on this slot. As I said, I was number 9 before, the dealer entered my configuration once again and voila - NOW I'M NUMBER 1... 
My delivery will be in the second week of January. So I finally have a somehow fixed delivery-date and it's only 3 weeks later than planned when I ordered the car....

available CLS55...
MB west chester (pa) has an available loaded black one due in very soon.
best salesperson there is bill siebold, a pleasant look-you-in-the-eye guy who doesn't act like you're his ATM. best SA there -- perhaps anywhere -- is eric silva, but most of the teams are very good there.
also, a great GM, bob d., who doesn't screw around. my experience has always been that when he approves a deal, the deal is done.
when problems arise, everyone there works to resolve them.
hope that's news you can use.

Congrats 
OT: But it seems lately we've had a extremely strong SF/CF presence on the board. I think it's about time we had a meet... We've tried two times before but it always seem'd to fade off into a distant memory
soco67: I sent you a PM....
tramadoc: Are you in the Brickell complex?

I will likely keep the car in Kentucky most of the time. Can enjoy it 3 weeks each month.
I can still make it to the meet.

2010 ZR1 2011 JGC Overland 2013 ML63 on order
030 in production
Well for the past 3 weeks my salesman and I have been corresponding in person and on the phone. Netstar has shown my car (every option including 030 pkg) CLS55 to be in production for the past 3 weeks. That's no line of BS either. I actually saw "my name assigned to the car" and the status listed as "IN PRODUCTION" several times while looking at his computer Netstar order system.
My salesman, Zuhare Saedi at MB of South Orlando checks the order daily along with his CSI rating and looks to see if there is a change in production status. He says that Netstar will eventually show a new status illustrating the car has been produced and awaiting transportation. He was originally expecting a late Oct early Nov delivery date but unfortunately there was no change in production status thus far
I telephoned MBUSA to see if they had an information on CLS55 030 pkg delays and they said they had no such information.
My speculation is that since this is the first run of 030's that there is some type of small delay getting everything in order for the cars. I do have a printout from my order on Netstar that shows all the configured options and selections. Well it shows something very interesting under the 030 option code.. "AMG REAR BODY M" and then it cuts off and shows the $9500 price.
We really may be getting fender flares with this package after all..

I know the CLS55 I ordered only took about a month to get to the dealership, of course I didn't get the 030 performance package.
