RELEASE DATE FOR 2018 GLC300

ANY TIME FRAME AS TO WHEN THE RELEASE DATE MAY BE FOR THE 2018 GLC300? I WOULD LIKE TO TAKE DELIVERY AROUND THE LAST WEEK OF AUGUST, BUT NO LATER THAN THE FIRST WEEK OF SEPTEMBER. WE PLAN TO SPEND 4 WEEKS ON A ROAD TRIP TO BAVARIA, THEN NORTHERN ITALY, ON TO FRANCE, FOLLOWED BY LONDON (REALLY WANT TO TAKE THE CHUNNEL TRAIN),
GO TO HAMBERG TO VISIT MY GERMAN SON (NOT REALLY MY SON. HE WAS EXCHANGED STUDENT THAT LIVED WITH US FOR A YEAR IN 1991, HE STILL CALLS ME HIS AMERICAN FATHER), TO BERLIN, THEN BACK TO STUTTGART TO DROP THE CAR OFF AND COME HOME AND WAIT FOR ITS ARRIVAL IN USA.

DID ANYONE TAKE DELIVERY OF A 2017 IN LATE AUGUST/EARLY SEPT. OF 2016. IF SO WHEN DID YOU PLACE YOUR ORDER?

THANKS

Welcome to ED Forum.
Few user recommend Herbert Haemmer (http://www.mbeuropeandelivery.com). I would recommend contact Herbert with your questions.
Good Luck.

The MY18 GLC300 will be available for European Delivery as of mid-August,
according to the internal MB calendar for MY18 EDP cars.
I would order 3-4 months before delivery or when the order system opens, whichever comes first.

Hope this helps.

Bill

Were you able to confirm the release date of your vehicle?
I am trying to order a 2018 E43 with a release date of mid august but my dealer tells me they won't be available for european deliver until November?
If I want to pick up a E43 in September, it will be a 2017.
This doesn't seem correct.
