Ordered E500 yesterday

Ordered a Brilliant silver/charcoal E2, heated seats, integrated phone, DVD/Nav. Dealer has one in stock so should have it Monday or Tuesday! Got it at cost as dealer is trying to make me happy since my 2000 E430 hasn't been great. Really liked the sport wheels on the sport, but didn't want the black maple. so i'll be looking into a tire/wheel package.

Is the DVD Nav already installed, or will yours be installed later in Feb or Mar? My understanding is that DVD Nav is not yet available, you pay now ($500) and get it installed later (no charge to install). Has this changed and is the system available and being put into cars from the factory now?

That's correct. The word is the first quarter of 2003.

not enough!

wesam, dealer gave me 29K for my 2000 E430 with a little over 50,000 miles. I could have sold it on my own, and still got the new E at cost, but I didn't want to deal with the hassle
