2019 c43 12.3" Backordered

Custom ordering a 2019 C43 facelift. My dealer called and said the 12.3" screens are on backorder until January 2019. Anyone else hear this too?

For anyone who's been in this situation before-- is it likely to in fact be January or is it possible they could come in sooner if I press ahead with the order?

Have you reached out to any other dealers? Others on this forum have ordered 19 models recently.

When was your build date? I assume your order wasn’t confirmed yet?

My sales associate told me that once the order is confirmed by Germany, those parts are assigned and order will complete.

If I exclude that option they can build it sooner... perhaps that’s what the other members have done.

Correct, not confirmed yet.

I have ordered a 2019 with the 12.3" screen. My dealer told me that screen and the HUD are on restraint, meaning they are back-ordered. Mercedes didn't order enough from the manufacturers for all the orders they are receiving.

My build is in allocation 2 (August build, end of September delivery), my dealer had to trade build slots with another dealer to get me both the instrumental display and HUD. They were must haves for me.

Good info. I'll check with other dealers. I'm in LA so there are quite a few...

My dealer told me the HUD will not be available until October allocations with possible December/January delivery.
