With the 5 or so delays on production etc since last year NY auto show.. what is the feeling. I have my order filled out waiting for dates and times. I wanted this truck. Not that the new SVR jag and some of these other are not totally tempting me but... at what point is MB kicking us in the crotch by releasing this as a 2018. We are at best in a depreciation debacle this late in the year. What do y’all think??? Why couldn’t they take care of us and make it a 2019??
Should I walk away? Am I over reacting?

Thanks for allll input!!

I personally would walk away from a 2018 model precisely because of how this has been handled by MB and the depreciation aspect, UNLESS I was getting some type of really good "deal". I'd rather just go ahead and get a 2019 model at this point. You've waited this long, what's another couple months for a "new" model. Ha. Good luck!

Well, I'll share my view. I have an order for 2018 GLC63S that has been built and shipped to port. As I understand today, it is sitting in the VPC as we speak waiting for EPA (and Monroney sticker) and the official MB US market release. The hope is a mid-April release of the car to my dealer, then a few days later, to me. I do not disagree with your point about depreciation and a late model year introduction. Hopefully, MB will offer my dealer some additional incentive to pass along to me as a loyal/patient customer waiting for the first batch of cars. My new dealer has been great and very helpful about the process since I cancelled and switched. I hope he throws in a little something extra from the holdback to make it up .
