Great news! I would figure final pricing is a critical step before the MY 17 release.

So, looks like it's a big secret - 2017 GLC MSRP price...

My_1st_MB

I don't believe it is a big secret. The final pricing was released today so the dealer should be sharing the pricing in the near future.
If anyone gets the new dealer order guide with the final pricing, please post it here.

Interesting. You are referring to the most updated DOG correct (one which goes only up to P03)? Hard to believe they would actually drop the price by ~$500. My guess would be they made another component of the P03 package optional and removed it from the mandatory P03 components, thus reducing the price. Any idea about this? I'll be speaking to my SA tomorrow and will share what I hear.

My_1st_MB

Nope. They did not remove anything from P03. All components between $7,780 and $7,200 are same.

Please let us know if you find anything different.

That's fantastic! Yes, I'll share what I find for sure.

I just heard from my dealer and have some great news!! My GLC build was complete on 7/21 and the car is sitting at the port waiting for it to be assigned to a ship. Should be on its way soon.

You were absolutely right about pricing. I got my build sheet back with pricing this morning and the pricing actually turned out to be lower than the one in the DOGs released in June due to the price difference in the P03 package. If I compare it to the 2016 pricing, it comes within $100-$150 of the old pricing. Overall, fantastic!

Just returned from dealer after pricing a 2017 GLC4W for my wife at $52,500 in PA. I ordered my 2016 c300 from them last August and received 12% off MSRP. The dealer said that they are not currently offering any fleet discounts due to excessive demand and only took $1,000 off. They even said they are not currently offering any discounts on the 2016 models they still have on their lot. We walked out. Anyone else on the east coast receiving same information?

I just ordered a 2017 (found one headed here on a boat already) and got about $5K discount from $51K MSRP in Maryland. I have USAA and the dealer is signed up with their car buying service. 1.75% financing from USAA as well, which is pretty nice.

MSRP determined today and I think it matches the 6/30 DOG posted in another thread.

And... mine is in Port of Baltimore! Tracked it by VIN, it arrived in port 7/20. I've heard 10 days or so for delivery and my dealer is 45 minutes from the port. Hoping to have it next week; time to call and bug the dealer even though I know that doesn't speed things up at all

They removed heated seats from P1, 2 and 3. All packages dropped by the price of the seats which are now a standalone option.

We ordered our 2017 GLC tonight and were told it would be built near the end of August. So, it is predicted to be here around the end of September. Really loaded it up with P03 (Driver's Assistance), panoramic sunroof, Sport/Night Package, Advanced Parking Assist, Head-up Display, Burmester, etc.
We negotiated 10% off MSRP and will also apply a fleet discount of $1K when we go in to purchase/pick it up. I might have been able to get another 1% off somewhere if I really wanted to grind, but got it from the local dealer where it will be serviced, so I think that's worth something.

Mine was ordered in April, Finished on June 16, on the boat (Neptune Ace) on the same day, across the Atlantic, down the East Coast, on to Columbia, through the Canal (delay due to traffic while opening the new lane), up the west coast of Central America and Mexico making several stops, and on to San Diego and then Long Beach where my car was finally rolled off.

And there it sits waiting for the powers that be at MBUSA to release 2017 models. I've no idea about price changes (although I've not been informed of any) and don't much care as I'm way more interested in getting my damned car!

Ah well, they say patience is a virtue . . . so I'll do my best to be virtuous.

watchg41

Where are you tracking it? Do you have a link you can share? Thanks!

My_1st_MB

The price of the heated seats was never part of the P01, P02 or P03.
(873) heated seats or (401) ventilated seats were forced if you selected any packages. With ventilated seats, you are further forced to get full leather package.

So previously the cheapest P03 was $7780 (P03) plus $580 (heated seats).

clarst

That's simply not true. Heated seats were in P01 of the 6/30/16 DOG, and have since been removed. They are now a standalone option ($580), and all three of the packages have decreased in price by that exact amount.

My_1st_MB

I know because I had posted the 6/30 DOG .... please read page 23.

clarst

I interpret that differently - P. 7 states it clearly, and the proof is in the pudding regarding the price changes.
I suspect they changed the way the packages are structured so as to eliminate that confusion. It ends up being the same price, but easier to understand and gives more flexibility to the consumer.

My_1st_MB

Agreed. Maybe you are correct.

When I first assembled my car, the spec sheet showed $7780 + $580 ... now it shows $7200 + $580.
