No MBUSA.com updates?
I understand from other posts that the W211 was released last week. Why is MBUSA.com still showing just pricing for the W210 models? When will the cars actually arrive at the lots? My dealer tells me mine will be delivered by end of next week.

Second-ed
I second that - was just to a dealer Friday and they told us, sort of skeptically, that the cars would be there Monday for the "National Rollout" as told to them in a letter from MB.
I picture a long line of semi's just parked on the side of the highway just waiting to get into the Chicago area exactly on Monday...
They had 1 '03 E brochure for the whole dealership and only a photocopied sheet with pre-release pricing...

Well let's hope it happens on Monday or Tuesday. It sure isn't fun waiting for this mystery release. Don't understand why there has been suc a delay. MB has been having these E-Motion events so the cars have been seen and driven. I haven't been able to get a copy of the big brochure from my delaer but I'm sure they have them and can't give them out yet.

gazz guzzler, but that is included with the 55,980, w/o it, the car starts at 54,980. Then there will be luxury tax, your s430 will have atleast 1000 lux tax, but it will not have gas guzz. And then the regualr 9.7 tax with license and stuff

Taxes vary depending on where you live. Sales tax in Virginia is 4.5%. For me that means $2,657, gas guzzler $1K, luxury tax is $631 (3% over $38K). I was told the base price is $54,850. With the options I've slected to total will be a little more than $63K

I live in canada, so we pay no luxury tax, but we pay gas guzzler and 15% tax.
However, cars in canada are actually much cheaper than in the states (by about 10-15%) and our options are cheaper as well.
