Finally placed an order for the 2021 AMG GLB 35

Hi everyone,

I finally was able to place an order at Mercedes Benz of Manhattan with the delivery date being September 30th, which I highly doubt because of COVID 19. What do you think of the options I picked? I’m so excited.

Looks awesome! GLB35 is pretty much my perfect car right now. Perfect blend of just enough performance and a ton of practicality without being too overpriced. I personally wouldn’t get the night package, as I prefer the chrome bits, but other than that it looks awesome!

Good move. I just cancelled my 2020 GLB 250 order that I ordered in January because it took too long, The salesman said the factory had to close down for eight weeks. I was lucky my dealership Mercedes-Benz of Brooklyn was able to place an order for a GLB 35 2021 so I ordered it. The sales manager said they were only allotted two GLB 35’s per dealership

Another New Yorker! Hell yea! I was going to get a GLB 250 but no dealer had it the way I wanted configured. Did the dealer tell you when it plans to arrive? What color did you get your exterior and interior? Can’t wait until we get ours.

I'm really excited too, Maybe the salesperson is trying to cover themselves, my guy told me late November/December because they have not yet started to manufacture them, your order looks like mine without prices so that means it's not finalized yet. My signature has the description Night Blk and Blk leather interior with silver trims/wheels.

Damn that is crazy as she told me mine was the first order to be manufactured but I didn’t believe September 30 anyway since I feel it is too soon. I expected it around November/December

If you like it then that's all that matters. Personally I found to 3rd row seats to be gimmicky unless you have small children. Also I hope they didn't charge you for that USB adapter because there's no way it cost $25 when even Apple sells theirs for cheaper. I love the ambient lighting and want to post some pictures to PC forums saying the car as RGB but the dealership didn't have a car with it in stock.

I really did not want to wait as I will not have a car for the summer but many of the cars that were in stock did not have all the features I wanted to just decided to order it. I love the ambient lighting
