GL
I saw a 2013 bluetec on the road today here in Houston...but it had a Florida license plate...
So I have a few issues with this...first...florida in texas in a brand new one...driving by himeself...something's up with that!
Also, Bluetec isn't coming out until October so I hear?
Anyone know any dates?
I talked to my dealer this morning and he said they don't know yet...waiting for MBUSA to release them but dealers have to sell down the 12s first.
If you are looking for a great deal, he says you can get A LOT off a 12

I turned in my 2007 GL450 yesterday. The dealer said the same thing TexasKing just said - they haven't released any 2013's yet. In fact they haven't even released the 2013 brochure. He is guessing that the GL450's will be released in about a month. The GL350's are about a month later.
I don't know about the GL450's, but the GL350's are being constrained. My dealer is a pretty big dealer in the midwest and their allotment is 2 GL350's for 2012, and both of them are sold already (one is mine). I talked to another dealer in the Twin Cities and he had one allotment, and his is sold. We won't have any others until 2013.

I'll wait till the end of summer of 2013 to get new GL Bluetec. I bought my 2010 E class as soon as it came out on the market and overpaid for that compared to 1 year later purchase. Don't wanna do this mistake again. But if money not an issue - enjoy your first new model on the block

Yep, the white 2013 GL350 with the Florida plates is from Jacksonville (MB Regional HQ). I saw it at my dealership in early August when it was there for training.
