It was from too far away, but it was white but it didn't have your wheels. The black GLE in Eugene had the AMG package w/ the multi-spoke wheels. Look clean.

I hope the 2020 GLE doesn't become another Grand Cherokee, those are everywhere.

LOL I misread that as "My wife is a 21y/o blonde female"

Well, my wife is younger, but not THAT much younger!

To be fair, the Grand Cherokee, especially in Overland or Summit trim, is a great vehicle; just getting old at this point.

i haven't seen one of those in ages, probably when visiting family in the valley. Just got back from Laguna Beach right now and saw every type of BMW suv...excuse me....sav there is, including a first gen x3 with those tail lights that make it look like the hatch door is open.

2020 GLE 450 AMG exterior
I just saw one on the road in Rhode Island. It was Mojave Silver, which looked spectacular. Much like with the Emerald Green Metallic, the MBUSA build tool doesn't do the Mojave Silver justice. I didn't think I liked it until I just saw it in person. It had the AMG Line Exterior and the 21-inch AMG Multispoke wheels, both of which I have on my build. It got me really excited to eventually take delivery. It was a fantastic-looking vehicle.

I just saw a lunar blue 350 on the highway earlier this week, same color as my 450. He didn’t even notice me as I was waving like an idiot to give him the thumbs up on his awesome color choice. Oh well.

2020 GLE 450 AMG exterior
Saw one in Lunar Blue Metallic today, just the second one I've seen on the road. Not sure if it was a 350 or 450, but it did not have the AMG exterior. Unlike the Mojave Silver, which looked better in person than on the website, the lunar blue was a disappointment. Not sure I would get it. It's not bad looking, but I somehow expected it to look better.

I had Cavansite Blue (Lunar Blue in the USA) for my 2016 GLE and was underwhelmed with it. Only on rare occasions when it was sunny, the car clean, and looking at it from the correct angle would I see the nice flake in the paint.

So I finally caught a glimpse of another 2020 GLE in Montreal, right downtown. It was a black on black, AMG-Line with Night Package with the 21 inch multi-spoke wheels. Looked nice. Couldn't take a photo as I was driving.

The Mojave silver one I saw a few weeks ago must be local. Saw it again today in the same area.

The 2012 (and beyond) Jeep Grand Cherokee and Dodge Durango were developed by Daimler in conjunction with the MB ML series, so they were very similar to the last series of ML/GLE’s. Less so since Fiat bought them, but they still have the same chassis.

I remember driving one as a rental when they first came out and was amazed how much it looked and handled like my ML350.

Saw my first GLE 350 in a parking lot and I was surprised it looked much better than I thought it would. Not sure why I thought that, but there ya go. It was a white one from MB Salem Oregon.
