I would guess there's very few that have every possible option.
agree!

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.

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.

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.

I live 3 blocks from the dealer & walk by everyday on my way to my PO box.

I bought some wheels off of Power Wheels Pro and got some 275/55R19 Nokian Hakk R's. Cost about $2600 all in. Best winter tires I've ever driven on.

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?

Sunny day makes a difference, otherwise it looks almost black. Also - it's full time job to keep it clean . I will try to catch one sunny day and post more pictures.
