If the GLE is already built you cannot decline or remove it. But if you are shopping for a new build then yes you can definitely not order it and not pay for it. What is included is located in the AMG side forum in the buyers guide thats posted.

Would you recommend getting it or is it a waste of money?

Pinnacle is the only way to get intelligent lighting correct? I would not have a car without that.
I've also had mine recoded by RJ automotive for Euro programming, which you can't have without Intelligent Lighting. It's superb.

Aside from that, most of the things in the Pinnacle are what I'd order anyway, and the package is a good deal if you want them.

For the GLE53, the pinnacle trim includes the heated and cooled cup holders, massage seats, HUD, gesture control, animated projection under door lighting, and air balance. Only you can decide if those features are important to you and worth $3,400 or not.

The HUD is worth getting. Hard to go back to a non HUD vehicle after driving one with a HUD.
