Easy bud. To me fully equipped means it has everything I wanted, not everything I could have ordered. Some might consider fully equipped having the HK audio, some might say that's garbage, it's not fully equipped until you have the B&O system. Some (like me) might say the thing isn't fully equipped until it has heated steering wheel and heated rear seats. Some in Florida might say it's fully equipped without those.
I would guess there's very few that have every possible option.

2012 GL350 Avantguard
Picked up our new GL350 on Tuesday. It has the AMG package (only available in Canada) and looks awesome. Drives very nice on our crappy condition roads. It was super windy the other day and the wife said should couldn't even tell there was any wind at all. I was really happy to see that the DEF filler tube is now located with the fuel one. Only disappointments have been that it didn't come with the stop/start function like they were advertising when we placed our order. It also didn't come with the all around camera like advertised, and the speedo is off by around 5% to fast. I think it is because the standard GL350's come with 20" wheels and have a tire diameter of 30.9" and these AMG 21" wheels have a tire diameter of 30.2. I've ordered up some 19" winters that will be 30.9" as well, so it will only be off for half the year at least.

The roads are quite crappy here and even worse after this snow and freezing ice. I really feel the roads with this ice with the 21s.
Are you getting the Pirelli scorpions 19s for winter? There is ~500$ price difference between the 2 dealers which I thought was large for a similar set of wheels and same tires. I need to get winters on as well. The 295 are toboggans at times.

No.
I plan on ordering mine in the spring.
$2,000 for TVs & most of the P2 items are more than I want.
This time around I am willing to wait for a red one.

Looks awesome! I saw yours ( im assumming it was yours) when it first came in off the truck ( just happened to be there) and thought it looked fantastic.

Love the color combo! Really glad MB has brought back a red for the GL and ML after discontinuing the Barolo Red a year or so ago. Congrats! Also, thanks for the feedback on the performance tune.
Kind regards

Looks great, I haven't seen a Lunar Blue. Is it just the sky that makes it look almost black? I'm guessing on a nice sunny day the blue pops out better?

Same place mine came from - which person did you work with over there?
