Post Looking for a new 2021 G550

In the past 2 days I have made over 20 calls to different dealerships around the USA in pursuit of buying a G550 with a white exterior, heated steering wheel, Comfort package and Sunroof.
I have had no luck, where can I continue to search to actually buy one? I don't mind paying over MSRP as long as it has what I want & I don't need to wait for it.

You are not going to find a new one with those features at a car dealer. I suppose, it's possible, but it is also possible you will be struck by lightening at about the same likelihood. Actually, those are some very common features, so maybe a slightly higher chance than being struck by lightening, but still doubtful. You will have to order one and wait a year or more if those are the features you want. Most people that want a new G class order them from Mercedes and wait a long time to get them.

Yes I went to MBUS NYC, they said they will charge ADM once the car arrives. I rather find one now and pay ADM, than wait a year and still have to pay ADM.

If you want one now, you would have much better luck going on Carfax and finding a slightly used 2021 with a few thousand miles on it. But it will cost you as much as a new one, or likely, even more.

Yes indeed.
Any sites I should be using to track new inventory?
I have been checking on cargurus and cars.com

Cargurus seems to have the best and most current inventory listing, but with Gs, most are already sold even though listed. You might succeed in snagging one of the G63 special editions or one from a CA dealer who's tacking on a $50K ADM. But if you want what you want, place an order and deal with the wait.
