'14 MB GL550 Diamond White/designo Porcelain/Black Leather w/ Bang & Olufsen BeoSound
Broker says the car arrived at the dealer this afternoon. Time to prep for delivery. They've scheduled the transfer...earliest pickup is Thursday. Maybe we'll get the new wheels by the weekend. Am I dissatisfied? Of course! That'll all go away when it gets here. I just hope I don't have as many complaints about the COMAND system & the cameras, etc. like everyone else!

My car was loaded on a transport trailer yesterday afternoon & began it's journey to poppa! No real estimate in arrival time but I'm guessing, with just under 1300 miles, tomorrow afternoon. It'll be a great day too get out & take it for a nice drive as the Miami streets will be quiet. Will update...

It's here! It arrived this afternoon! Just got off the phone with my delivery specialist, who went over everything. It is a beauty! I'm really shocked at all the negative remarks I'd read on other posts concerning 2nd row head rests, COMAND, navi input, etc. Everything seems to be A-ok on our GL550! I'll be responding to other posts.
