CLK 550
I am getting a 320, not a 500, but if it helps, I placed my order in mid-October and I have a January 20 build date. I went to several dealers in both NY and NJ (both big and small), and the wait time was about the same at every dealership.
Also, all the dealers mentioned that the wait on a 500 would be longer.
Lastly, the dealership in Paramus has a Firemist Red 500 they are using as a demo model. Perhaps you could talk them into selling that one. But aside from that, I haven't seen any 500s on any lot that were not already accounted for.

My car was ordered in April. I was suposed to recieve it in August. I finally got a buld date of December 14 and should have it January 15th! I hope its worth the wait. I special ordered 500 Black/black with grey inserts in seats, patterned alluminum, k3, k4, and the nav. Ill let you know when it finally comes!
p.s. I drove the firemist 500 at Paramus dealer. I was told it is the wife to the dealership owner's car. It was great to actually drive the car I ve been waiting so long for. However, i dont think the car looks so great in that color.
