Spoke to my SA today and my GLC63S has cleared customs but is still at their facility in Long Beach. Wondering if anyone has received their 2019s yet, or if their SAs have said when they will get released?

thanks!

Interesting. Is this typically something I could have my dealer call you and take? basically take your "allotment" ?

Have the deliveries of the C43, SLC43, S560 and E450 Coupe and Cab begun to hit the dealerships yet? My guess is that they should be hitting soon if they are going to be ready for sale on Oct 1.

Are there any updates on the GLC43? I've had one at the VPC in Long Beach since August 1st.

I heard two very different stories from different dealers yesterday:
- not yet released by the federal government (it must be public, where to find it?)
- they have been cleared for release to inventory, no ETA on deliveries

I would say option 1 applies to GLC63.

I would say option 2 applies to other models.
I ran accross a post on instagram of a dealer with a GT 63 S on sales floor for demo.

I thought that even the GLC 63 had passed the certification for 2019...not sure where I gleaned that bit of info anymore but that's how I remember it.

Certifications for California can be found at the link below. Cars are placed in groups by engine displacement.
GLC43 passed Aug. 24. GLC63 passed Sep. 5. California emissions are not the hold up anymore.

In talking with my dealer he indicated the cars were going to be rare and would be sold at msrp. Did any of you guys get any discounts on the 2019?
