Yes. Ordered 8/13 from central Illinois (USA) dealer. Took over a GLC43 that my dealer had already ordered for stock. Build scheduled for mid-September.
Lunar blue with expresso brown leather and Linden wood (black ash temporarily not avail). Grey 20" multispoke with all season tires. Premium pkg 3. Advanced parking. HUD. Burmester surround. Heated front seats (ventilated seats not currently avail).
MSRP US$68,110. Dealer offered to sell at MSRP, and I agreed. Negotiating is not my strong suit.

I got 8% off a special order C450 when the car was still new model and hardly any inventory available.
Others have done just as well with the C63 and the ed1 C63s.
So no, it's not funny. In fact it is a very serious question.
We are looking to order a C43 fairly soon. Probably during the winter event.
When we were shopping for the C450, the first dealer I interacted with told me that "these cars are in high demand and we only sell them at MSRP". I decided to do business elsewhere.

I've ordered one yesterday, and yes here in the UK you can negotiate on them. I'm a bit old fashioned though and don't tend to talk about money online. I like to build a relationship, and take a holistic view at a deal (discount, trade in, service, servicing etc). Just a cold hard % doesn't tell the whole story. But yes in my experience everyone deals, and the best deal is when everyone including the dealer benefits.

I'm on the fence. My dealer will be getting a GLC43 in (they claim) 4 weeks. My plan is to test drive that to see if it's worth the ~$10k increase in price. Otherwise, I'm just going to special order a GLC300. In either case, 10% off MSRP seems to be the figure to aim for when negotiating.

I added the premium and premium plus, led lighting, designo color, running boards, acoustic glass, burmester sound. Base was 59k, with the extras I think I was around 75k with taxes and fees 87k

Not sure if GLC 43 is made in Germany or US but if its Germany then there's a 6% duty compared to US made cars. This may explain price difference

They are working on the build so I am not sure yet. I originally wanted it in diamond white but they are temporarily sold out so I changed to red. Now I am not sure about the red. May change back to diamond white and wait. There is a chance I will not get it if I do that 
I am in Manitoba.

Never actually heard one before, sounds awesome. Will be a lovely car for my wife for the school run.

It's called "The Australian Tax" everything here is expensive - houses, food, luxury cars to name a few. I was disappointed that Aust. Spec GLC43 doesn't even come with red stitching on black leather seats, door panels or dash. Can't even be optioned. You folks in UK and USA get heaps more options. Enjoy the 43 when it arrives, it's so versatile, do the school run on weekdays and then a weekend cruise on some nice twisty roads.
