Question: I have on order 2024 AMG GLE. 53 W with ARC, soft close doors, acoustic package, driver assistance package, pinnacle package, night package, 21" wheels 5 spoke with black, 4 zone air, so pretty loaded. Exterior Serenity Grey and interior 574 Black/Bahia Brown, and trim Dark Linen Brown. So pretty loaded. Question: Any have any comments on the color or interior ? It is is hard to really know as the Black/Bahia Brown and the Dark Linen Brown wood trim are new. Salesman recommended saying they would look good together. I am coming up to my 6 week lock in so any changes still can be made but I only one week on my window. Thanks in advance for your comments.
Same issue, 'cept didn't tell wife, put in order for '24 GLE 63 SUV with options maybe $130K, Nov/Dec. potential delivery. Dealer was able to enter order, no base price, just options. BTW dealer has E63 wagon on site, matte grey finish, badge on dash is 1 of 999?!

2024 e63 Wagon
Beautiful car. If I could have persuaded my wife to go for the 63 I would have ordered one in a heart beat. Love the car and color. You have a December production date. When my 53 was ordered, early June, the dealer had the base price and price of options but warned me that Mercedes has the right to change the price until it is officially published. I assume that will be in early July. The Mercedes web site has the new 2024 AMG GLE 53 and 63, however the "build" function is not enabled yet, so pricing will be locked once they enable the build feature.
Get the ARC as mentioned, it improves the ride substantially from what I heard.
Check your purchase order if you are building - I have an October build date for a 53 and the Active Ride Control has been dropped, with no notice to me or the dealer. They also added a Load Sill Protector and First Aid Kit as required for my build. No ARC means no purchase for me. Previous comment about ARC availability beyond August builds is looking correct.

that is a deal breaker about ARC availability. What was said about the ARC availability beyond August that I must have missed. If no ARC cannot be ordered, then I am not ordering the 53 as that is a deal breaker for me.

Agree.
I would be driving a Cayenne, but only with PDCC. Similar but a bit more primitive than ARC. Their Rear Steer kind of makes up for it.

That happened to me also. Does anyone know the true meaning of delayed?
Do I proceed with the order and hope it self-cures?
mbgle53 - when is your production date and when do you expect take delivery? Do you know if you will get Summer or All Season tires and are they run flats? I placed my order the 53W4 with a production date of Aug 8 and expected delivery before the end of August. I have not been able to determine which tires I will end up and if they are run flats or not. I really hope run flats as the collapsible spare tire is of little comfort to me.
I already took delivery on 5/31/24.
I got Michelin Pilot Sport 4S 22” tires.
I also got the collapsible spare tire. It’s intended for
an emergency purpose. I don’t prefer the optional tire sealant.

AMG GLE53 - Option 465 AMG ACTIVE RIDE CONTROL is currently delayed
Placed my order for 2024 AMG GLE53 W on May 31st to include 465 AMG Active Ride Control. updated order on June 9th to include soft close doors and the print out of the production order shows 465 AMG Active Ride Control. I have not heard a peep from my salesman since. Yikes I will cancel my order if Mercedes changes my order and drops 465. This is would be totally unacceptable as I have been waiting for the car I want since March 15th. I will call my sales guy today. I like him and trust him as being as honest and transparent as one can expect from the sales guy. Fingers crossed.

Question: Discussion here about MB delaying ARC on production orders. I have a production date of August 8th and have ARC listed on my production order, at least as of June 9th. I have not heard from my sales rep and he is on vacation until July 7th so I do not expect to hear from him anytime soon. Question: Is MB delaying ARC on August production? Does anyone have an August production with ARC and have you heard if MB has delayed it from your order?
My dealer says that any order with a build date in August is safe. Mine is September.
Thank you for your reply. Sorry that your order might be impacted. Hopefully you can work it out. This is very frustrating. I had an order with a June production date and then the dealer told I could not get the 21" wheels and that I had to take the 20" or 22" wheels. Not to say that either of the choses would not be a good choice , but for me I had ordered on March 15 and then to be told in middle May that I had no choice or I could get the 21" wheels in December was a deal breaker. Canceled with that dealer and found another dealer who booked the August 8th production date with the 21" wheels. I just hope no more surprises given no discount order and loaded, over $100k. Really tired of hearing supply chain excuse.
