I found someone to take over so yeah she took my place.

Thank god I would have felt bad if no one took my place. No one from here took over though. I had to keep calling my friends and they keep asking their friends.

Anyways just wanted to let you guys know it is not avaliable anymore.

How does the GL550 drive anyone here has test driven it or have 1 already?

I am buying from an MB dealer at $1000 over invoice. I am confused by the above quote; is this $1000 below $82,400? If so, then I think this is $1000 below MSRP which is much higher than invoice. $1000 off the invoice should be less than $80000 even if it is fully loaded!

I believe that axchung got it for 1000 below invoice. With the options he described, his sticker would be 82,400 and so my guess is that he paid around 76K.

That is an unheard of steal if he got a GL550 for $1k BELOW invoice. I would like to see the paperwork before I would take that as gospel, if you get my drift...:-)
