Cars are being delivered to customers so you know all the specs have been finalized for configuring the car and yet there is still no build your own at MBUSA....Typical MBUSA website cluelessness.

'10 C63
Doesn't it make sense to wait for the '09 model for two reasons....?
1.) Keyless Go
2.) Resale Value - Anyone who buys an '08 will already be in the hole quite a bit when the '09s come out. Even if the '09 was exactly the same car with the same options available I would still wait just so my resale value is about $2500 better than a late delivery '08. MB is really screwing the folks who go for the '08 out of the box.

'08 CL600,'09 C63 (sld), '07 550i (sld), '08 VW , '04 X5 4.4 (sld), '02 ML (sld), '01 e46M3 (sld)
No keyless go or cf trim in 09. I had my dealer pull my order back up and check their system and they are not available.

$64,000 isn't that bad at all. With current euro to dollar exchange rates, mercedes, bmw, etc are taking a pretty big hit. If it weren't for MB and BMW's southern assembely plants (because the exchange rate works both ways, every car built here exported to europe for them makes a very nice profit for them), I believe we would have already seen increased sticker prices.

Recently on the AMG Private Lounge they mentioned that MB was in process for moderninzing the entire site, so maybe that is what they are waiting for.

I sent MBUSA an email about this, and they sent me back some BS response that said "Thank you for your interest, we are currently working on the issue and hope to resolve it soon" Its rediculous that they are willing to dish out all this $ on TV commercials for the C63, yet you go on the website and get shafted.
