CL 63

How long would it take to get my hands on a CL 63? I saw one of these beauties the other day and I just fell in love with it. I could probably settle for the CL550 but I would much rather have a CL 63. Anyhow, does one need to make reservations for a car like this, or will I be able to ride home with one on the same day I walk into the dealership?

CLK63 Black Series
Find a dealership that has one on the showroom floor, and you should be greeted with all smiles . . . it's a tough time to "move the metal", right now.

bot mine right off the lot. I'd bet that you could easily find a new 08, identical car, at good discount.

Sweet. I thought there would be a few months waiting period or something. I will most likely get this as a b-day present which is coming up in about 2 months.

Agree...we're in a recession/credit crisis, so lots of cheap, new high-end cars/houses, etc out there...

That said, any $150K+ commuter car is discretionary....

Would get a new CL properly equipped in an acceptable color, w/all options incl 030, DistPlus and cf/blk wood, from a reputable dealer likely to provide support if have lemon law issues...would be picky...but try to find best value, not necessarily lowest price CL....

After some 15K mis of driving CL63 030, would argue it's the most enjoyable driver's car on planet today....and, to me, worth every penny of its well-known depreciation.....in fact, was so pleased w/daily entertainment my CL provided to-date that trading it for new, '09 CL65 next mth....simply addictive cars...

Black exterior with the cashmere and walnut interior. I did a quick pricing on edumunds and it comes out to 143k. Is this what I will be looking to pay or is there room for negotiations?
