Do we get the folding mirrors or not?
I looked at 5 different GLKs yesterday with varying packages. None of them had folding mirrors.
Are we supposed to get the folding mirrors in the USA or no?

They all fold the question is are the power folding. From what I read Canada does get power folding mirrors and US does not.
On a side note, I think non-power folding mirrors have a benefit because they fold both ways, so if you hit it while backing out it'll just fold the other way instead of breaking. I dont think power-folding mirrors do that. Correct me if I'm wrong.

I test drove two pre-January productions GLKs and they do not have the power folding mirrors. When I test drove the post-January productions GLK from another dealer, it come with the power folding mirrors as I tested this feature.

GLK 350
Which dealer did you order from, since I have seen two test vehicles that I drove had this option. GLKOWNER has a GLK in ottawa with the folding mirrors, so I am not sure you are getting right info from your dealer.

I think bish was refering to footmarks response...i'm curious to know also. I drove/saw versions in January and they did not have power folding mirrors...wondering if that changed.

GLK350
The day I took delivery of my GLK there were two nearly identical obsidian black GLKs which had just arrived.
GLK #1 had the power folding mirrors and black roof rails (Sport Appearance Pkg)
GLK #2 no power folding mirrors and aluminum roof rails (Sport Package)
So it seems with early production you win some you lose some. I have power folding mirrors but ended up with black roof rails.
