Since there has been a sighting in Florida, when do we get a look? I need to decide what I am going to get the Wife.

Yeah - I looked at your location after my post: SD is just a little bit isolated geographically and may just not have received any showroom sales models....

Surely an LA dealer has one...House of Imports, and what's the other giant there?

I tried 3 dealers in LA yesterday and not one had even heard of a preview GL. Kind of odd, considering that one was Laguna Niguel (huge). Hmmm, anyone know of a dealer that has one?? They get released next month, so having a preview one now wouldn't be that odd. Are the expectations for sales already that great?

I'm with you, jangy, as far as keeping an eye on the SD dealers.... I can't wait to go check one out.

I don't think the GL will just show up any day now, I think it wil be at least another month before they go on sale. I'm looking for them to go on sale right around the time the NY auto show opens up around the middle of April. Then again who knows, mbusa could update the website tomorrow with a build your own section, pricing and everything next week.

I don't run the MBZ marketing dept. -- but since they ahve already announced that they are beginning the marketing advertising campaign in April, and since some dealers already have their showroom model, it can't be much longer until they will be in showrooms throughout southern California....

I want to see one!!

I'm already starting to shy away from it, since there is no GL550 for now.

Anyone know when the dealers in SoCal will have one for show?
