2014 GL 350
Thanks. I have a higher volume dealer that I will be talking to. Let's see what I can get. It seems 2k-3k is what the average discount is.

My salesman (and yours can too) ran an order inquiry with Netstar - Mercedes-Benz, USA, LLC online. The VII tab has the data. On the VII screen there is an Events field. The Netstar report run 8/28/13 for my new ride shows the first events since 7/31/13:

Z50 08/27/2013 PFD SET [Production Finish Date Set?]
B4A 08/27/2013 PRODUCTION STARTED [YEAH BABY!]
Z76 08/27/2013 TRANSMITTED TO MY [Model Year-here 2014]
Z28 08/27/2013 VIN CHANGE [I think = 'assigned']

Closer Yet! Today's (8/30/13) Info:
Events:
D50 08/29/2013 RLS TO CARRIER
D40 08/28/2013 VPC READY [READY TO SHIP!]
D41 08/28/2013 LABEL PRINTED [Window sticker?]
D30 08/28/2013 VPC DELAYED [Must have finished late and not been able to get it to the VPC on time on the 27th]

Current Status: D5 RLS TO CARRIER

So, no ETA, Ship Date, Vessel [Dealer says train from AL to Phoenix, then truck to Tucson]
Dealer says about 12 days (calendar), but it is a holiday weekend, and this might make a difference.

$2900 AMG package in Canada for a whole bunch of stuff that would cost you the same as a 2012 Prius to ask MB to put on after delivery. Mind Boggling why MB has no AMG pack for the 350 in the U.S, the sales would go up which mean more $$$ in their pockets and customers

I picked up our palladium silver/black GL 350 that we ordered this weekend. It is a very nice vehicle and a significant upgrade from our 09 GL 320. Thanks to everyone for their help answering questions.
