Arrow 2004 CLK500 Convertable Availability

Hey everyone -

Its been a good 9 months now since delivery of my 2003 CLK500, and I'm nothing short of thrilled with it. My family recently purchased an appartment in Boca Raton, FL and we are looking to get a car for down there. After looking at the Audi A4 cab, it didn't take us long to decide that the CLK500 cab was worth the extra few bucks.

We have deposits down at 2 dealerships as well as sent out feelers at 2 other dealerships.. however, they're telling us if you didn't have your name on the list a year ago, you won't be driving the car until well into 2004.

I was curious if anybody has reserved a 2004 CLK500 convertable, and what they have heard availability will be.

Right now, we are telling people that the wait will be approximately 6 to 7 months. Although, I am sure that will differ from east coast to west coast to midwest.

Email me, you can probably have....

the delivery on my CLK 500 cab. Brilliant silver with ash, I don't remember what else I ordered. First delivery at a small market dealer. Drop me a line if you like, although I still don't think anyone knows exactly what delivery is going to be like. I'm going to pass.

My 2004 CLK500 Cab just landed last week in Long Beach. I don't know whether MB will release the car to me yet as it is not officially supposed to be released July 1st. I'm hoping though

Wow, how exciting.. I remember this time last year wondering when the hell my car would finally arrive. You must have put your name on the list a year ago.. I can assure you it will be well worth whatever the wait has been. Good luck.

I stand corrected. I spoke with my salesperson yesterday and it looks like it won't be released until "sometime" in July. So...it looks like patience is a must here
