This is my wife ride , I have only been in it a few times in the last week so I cannot remember what you can do with the heads up display . You can shut it off quickly on the dash there is a button on the left side . The Vehicle is extremely quite , Much faster than we expected . I am a auto dealer & sell allot of the previous models and they are very fast off the line . The Lighting is spectacular , Very bright , really wide & long reaching.
After getting back into the 14's this feels so modernized . I think it is going to be a big hit !!!!!

I saw my GLC300 4Matic today at the dealer (for the first time!): It has the chrome binnacles. FWIW, it does not have the interior/premium/lighting package, but it does have the Sport package and Driver's Assist.

If it's random who gets the chrome binnacles, I must say I feel lucky as they do look great... but anyways, what's more important, the car just feels so solid and awesome throughout!

After reviewing the northeast GLC inventory, it seems the binnacles are included either with the sport package or the interior package. The binnacles are paired with the MB Tex top stitched dash which is included with those packages.

Got our GLC today... coming from a 2002 C240, can't describe how much we appreciate the car, it simply out last all of our expectation. The real car looks much better than in pictures... this simply the sexiest compact/mid SUV around, my previous favorite was Macan and GLK.
My wife was super happy as the car is getting so much attention.

Will post more pictures later.

Diamond Silver looks the best on a rainny day.

-Black accented 20" wheels (MB configurator)
-Grey/silver 20" wheels
-Silver 18" "standard" wheels
-Flat-bottom steering wheel (designo package too)

I was under the impression that the flat-bottom steering wheel and grey 20" wheels were unavailable in the US market.
I don't see the flat bottom steering wheel as an option either? It doesn't show in the image when the designo is added nor is it mentioned. Would love to have that.

I don't think the flat bottom steering wheel is an option on the GLC300, at all. Truth be told, I have it on my C300 Sport and while it is really nice looking and all, it's actually odd feeling when you turn the wheel. Maybe it's just me, but other than looks, I haven't quite figured out what's better about a flat bottom steering wheel?

It makes ingress/egress a bit easier if you are the larger variety of human

Speaking of which, my dealer sales guy seemed to think that the steering column will auto retract and raise when turning off the car to facilitate entry/exit but I didn't see the car do that at all. Can anyone confirm? My X6 has this and it's a really nice feature.

Hmmm...that seems wrong. My X6 raises (if not at the top already) and retracts when the car is shut off and when you start the car, it returns to the previous position which typically means it extends and lowers.

Sorry...this is getting off topic, if the mods want to move this to a new thread that's fine.

The steering wheel can indeed move up when you turn off the car. It's a setting you can turn on or off. I don't use it. I'm not [yet] too large to get in or out of my car with the steering wheel in place.

Ah, that makes sense. Thanks.

I only have issues in the winter when I'm wearing a large coat. Always seems to get caught up on the steering wheel.

Oh my goodness, what a beauty!!!! This really excites me because my GLC build is the same colour!!! I am waiting for the call ANY DAY from the dealer that it's here! Did you stick with the cancelled order from someone else, or is this your own build? If this was your build, it may have been on the same ship as mine (but mine had some additional ports to stop at before getting to Brunswick, GA which should have been 15Dec). Drive your GLC in great health!

Thanks! It was a cancelled order. But it has the colour, interior and most options we wanted. The only thing we didn't get is heated steering and upgraded audio.
We love Diamond Silver, White and grey colour, and the satin black ash trim interior. We live in Toronto, the SUV was shipped from halifax.
The colour surprised us, as we saw the Diamond Silver SLK at dealership, was also nice but not as stunning as this one, it may have something to do with the scale of the car.

Here are some pics of my husband's new GLC300 RWD. We are loving it. The size is perfect and the interior is absolutely perfect. M-B Tex rocks.
