VPC receives the car when it is done, so I'm assuming they are the ones to check status. Mine is 15 days past the "production date;" it's been 5 weeks since production started.

The Cayenne that I left behind for the GLE450 was looking pretty spiffy. I guess it will just come down to the amount of patience us E-ABC guys have (assuming that's the bottom line here). Seems like new GLE's are still being shipped; dealer got some more.

I am pretty frustrated with MB Canada also, two years ago when I order GLS350. After waited for 4 months, week before delivery they told me no more Diesel engine.
When switching my order to GLE they told me to put down another 8k CND to show I am committed for the purchase. I was like I already have 10k down and now with out a delivery date you need another 8k ? I called MB Canada and complaint about the issue, with in a hour they have a manager place my GLE order over the phone. I really don’t know what’s going on with MB.

I am not sure if they have it yet but from what I have seen recently they show coming soon once the car has been shipped from the factory.

Agreed, it’s an indication that at least one with E-ABC has recently been built. If that was the reason some were held up then it could be good news for others.

Out of the total 5-6 tE-ABC hat were built in Feb - there are total (2) that were slotted for US dealer delivery - both as customer sold units in the NE.
For E-ABC - 3rd Decade March thru 4th decade April (original "updated production dates) there are 94 slotted for production - May thru 1st week June 29.
With 370+ US dealers - anyone can do the math - oh - May E-ABC orders still changeable/swappable for a few more days..

Reporting back on my build with MBUX Tech package....My build shows the DA 0 included as ordered with no change. This leads me to believe that Mercedes is fighting a shortage of some component from Suppliers.

Production delay
Still nothing from the MBUSA “executive referral manager” on mine after 4 days, 2 phone calls and 3 emails. 16 days past my production date now. I’m going to heat thing up come Monday.

If the post by Fabbrisd1 is correct then they are still a month out on E-ABC. Even if they only built 2 yours should have been first. It’s not likely that anyone placed an order sooner and we know that Joe’s was later but appears to be one of the two built.

How did they get it to $91k? ADP? I don't see E-ABC or Airmatic, AMG Exterior or Interior, panorama sunroof, leather, etc. Diver Assistance Plus and MBUX Technology are the only big packages.

I couldn’t find E-ABC but the 91K price tag doesn’t seem to fit the options listed. No AMG, the lower priced Burmeister, gas shocks, no premium leather, etc. The description would put in the 70’s so they may have the wrong vehicle info.

Saw the new GLE at the DFW auto show today, people couldn't get enough of it. Really pretty Blue on the display car. Now if Mercedes can iron out production and supply their dealers like they do with the GLC and GLS they would actually sell a lot of them.

Sport exhaust with AMG Line Exterior
I'm still seeking an answer to whether the "functional sport exhaust" in the AMG Line Exterior package is a valved system. In the photo JoeMa posted a while back, I've pointed to what looks like could be part of a valve assembly. The fact there are two pipes to each outlet also point to this. If anyone has the chance to see a 450 AMG Line would you please get a photo that shows more of this area?
