Thinking of Dumping 2020 GLE450 for the GLC
I know I know I'm crazy....but I'm actually thinking of dumping my month old GLE and getting a GLC when they release. Main reason? Too big. It's a fantastic machine. But I just don't like a big vehicle. I had ML in the past and happily traded down to the GLK when it came out then GLC. Also have some back issues and the seat in the GLC has that extended seat that solves that for me. Can't get comfortable in the GLE. Wondering what kind of hit I'd take selling a new car so soon.

Without the third row, I'm not interested, but I imagine someone here might be, if you want to post your build. Might mitigate your loss on the depreciation. Otherwise, I can't imagine a scenario in which you don't lose a bunch of money. Given your back issues, it may be worth it. Did you not test drive the GLE? Did you find it was less comfortable the more you drove it? Do you have any concern that the GLC may have similar issues once you've driven it for a bit?
