It turns out they will status match. And in addition if you are Marriott Platinum you can get United Premier Silver by just linking accounts online.
I applied for status match and went from no status to Premier 1K in one week.

MBUSA is working on obtaining an update for production timeline on the GLC63 order in order to inform next steps with [dealer] in ordering an E63S wagon. I should anticipate an update by Tuesday, February 6, 2018 at which point we can determine next steps.
Basically, a no news update. I hope they don't try to screw me and say "well its under production now so here is your delivery date". I am 50/50 on whether or not this will be the case.

Having placed my order in June and having documentation that the dealer promised September delivery, they got the point.

Have you asked for a discount on the E63S yet? The Mercedes people tend to work on what you ask them for. You could say you have waited long enough and want them to help you buy an E63S instead. The price diff is too high, so can they give you a discount to partially help bridge the gap.

I took delivery of my E63S today. Will post pictures on the weekend.
MSRP was $117,450. I paid $105,040 plus $400 shipping to Atlanta + about $605 in taxes so $106,050 out of the door. Was a spectacular deal! MBUSA chipped in $4k, the United Discount was $2k, and the rest came from the dealer.

Congrats! I'm swaying towards a GLC63 and the wife is keen on getting a Macan GTS (the C63 is her daily). Both priced about the same. Not a bad problem to have.
Does anyone know when the new dash/screen layout will trickle down to the GLC?

It took a while for them to respond. About 2 weeks or so. But once they picked it up they were really quick.

The E63S is a spectacular machine and the tech is just off the charts. In retrospect I think I this was the better purchase - but that's because I value the added luxury and the more cutting edge cabin tech of the wide screen navigation and the Apple CarPlay.

I guess she can go to the next C63 while I get the GTS. She only has 27K miles on her 2009 C63.While I would prefer some separation between the gauge cluster and main screen, this is much better than the iPad solution.

Well - the official update from Mercedes - my car, ordered in June 2017... WILL NOT BE BUILT until BEGINNING of MARCH 2018.
"May be ready to ship by end of APRIL"
If you haven't gotten out, get out now, you will have 1 month of a "new car" before the 2019s hit the lot. Way to screw the pooch Mercedes!

Mercedes is having a ridiculous supply chain issue.
Massive delays with E Class and E63 models too. Regular E-class production has run out of digital cluster so if you want that option you have to wait till September. Also brown leather is sold out for the foreseeable future. E63 production delays too as the shortage of electronics is affecting AMG production even though parts are prioritized to AMG.

Looks like things keep getting worse. Here's a reply to me in the AMG PL forum for GLC:

Just heard from MBUSA today that cars will be SHIPPING in April... NOT delivered. Likely going to be on ground in May/June based on prior delivery timelines.
In addition - still have a scheduled build date for end of February - even though there is no workforce to build them right now (German auto unions went on strike last week and still are striking)

I have a 1D March build, no further update. Setting aside EPA or other port delays, what is the typical delivery timeline for a March build? If April, I am holding on. If really May/June, I might back out absent material incentive.

My build also will ship in April per mbusa... I have a 2D Feb date....
Usually 1 month on ship to get here, more to west coast... mid may to early June.
hence why I'm working on getting out.
I wouldn't take less than 10k incentive to account for depreciation

My GLC63S order from August 17' with originally estimation for December, was firstly postponed to March, later to May. When I asked about canceling order they told me I will have to pay 50% of car price 
Partialy I am looking forward this new car, but that looong process makes me crazy
