US Ordering Guide

The last revision is from July 24 but most info should be still relevant.

Wonder why the saddle leather option is not available, even though they have pictures of it.

On the second page of the PDF:

For illustrative purposes, some images may show vehicles with European Specification.

Yeah, I know that...but why do the Europeans get the saddle option, but we don't? i think the take rate would be pretty good. The color is also available on the revised GLE.

The euros get a lot of options that we don't. Sometimes the reasons aren't clear. As far as the Saddle Brown interior is concerned, maybe the US DOG is just out of date. The Canadian DOG shows it as an option (albeit as "temporarily unavailable due to factory restrictions") so maybe that's a sign that it'll be offered in the US as well.

Personally, I was hoping that the "ARTICO man-made leather/Grenoble fabric in espresso brown/black" interior was going to be available here but seeing as there's no mention of it (or "brown open-pore ash wood" for that matter) in either the Canadian or US DOGs, I might be SOL on that front.

All good points. Fingers crossed for its eventual availability. I saw the brown/black combo and that pretty cool too!

U S Dealer Ordering Guide MB MY16 GLC

Thanks for the post. There is a later, August 6, 2015, version out there but I have not found the difference between the two. Pricing is the same in both.

August US Ordering Guide Changes

The only changes in the August guide are on

Page 6 Multi - Chamber Air Suspension (delayed availability)

Page 30 489 AIRMATIC Air Suspension (delayed availability)

These are the only changes I have seen from the July US Ordering Guide

All MSRP Pricing is the same in both guides.

My apologies as I tried to upload the cover page and page 6 and 30 unsuccessfully.

Do u guys really think the airmatic? is that big of a difference? I had two GLK350s and now I drive a GL 550, I don't really think it improves the ride that much........

I've never ridden in a car with air suspension before, but I imagine you're more likely to notice it during hard cornering and/or driving over crappy roads. The latter especially so if you have low-profile tires. If neither of those apply to you I guess that's an opportunity to save yourself $1610

In diesel versions, exhaust diffusers are fake. What about non AMG gasoline versions?

I noticed that 3 zone climate control is a special order option. Does the back seat have no climate controls and by ordering 3 zone climate you would have some?
