Trading in my 06 E350 4matic for an 08 350 4matic.. have questions

The dealer said he will take 4% off the sticker price of whatever model I choose. I will be trying to haggle a small bit, but I told him I am very particular with what I want. There are certain features I would like the car to have, but I am unsure of all the "package numbers" is there somewhere you can guide me to in order to ensure that my car has:

Sienna Black or Gray (Switching form my perfect Black Opal)
Keyless go
Panoramic sun
blue glass windows
333 Sport Package or is this the same as P2?

Anyway, I would liek a list for the 08's features and ordering numbers so that I can make sure that the car has what i want! Thanks for the help as I am ordering or finding the car by Augst 14-18th.

Visit http://www.mbusa.com then click on “Build Your Own”. Keyless Go is already included in the P2 Package as is Blue Tinted Glass in the 333 Sports Package. When choosing your interior color note you can order either Burl Walnut or Black Birdseye Maple wood trim. Lastly I would suggest rather than discounting a percentage from the MSRP sticker price request they sell you the vehicle at dealer’s invoice cost - do not be shy in asking because the dealer will still profit. As another member mentioned in another thread the simplest formula to calculate invoice price is:

Go to MBUSA and do a Build Your Own to come up with the total MSRP for the car you want. This price will have $775 shipping included so subtract it from the total MSRP you came up with.

Then multiple the MSRP w/o shipping by 93% and then add the $775 back in again.

This will get you very close to the Invoice price.

There may be advertising charges added to this price ($600 in the SW US) and the dealer may add in a fee for paperwork.

I used this method and came to within less than $10 difference with the final Invoice price on my recent '08 order.

I have the information needed. I will speak with a salesman this week.

Just curious... if any of you were looking at the Barolo Red as well? I am undecided between barolo red or Sienna Black. Any suggestions or hints to aid in my order?
