GLK 350
future owner
my X5 lease is up and decided to downsize a bit and tried GLK today. I really liked it. Very smooth ride and great engine sound. Agressive interior and loved AMG package on it. Getting one next week, decided to think about the color (most likely Arctic White).
Also decided on premium + AMG packages..not sure about nav though. Been using idrive navs for some time. Any input from Benz owners is greatly appreciated.
cheers,
soon to be one of you

Factory Nav is definitely NOT worth it. Although it is nice when it is built in many of the Garmin units have it all over the MB Nav.

Doubtful you will find one on the lot without navigation up here. You'll probably have to place an order for one specifically without it. I think I was told by my salesperson that every GLK they bring into Canadian dealers will come with at least premium package and navi.

I had an X5 when they first came out. Nice SUV; I think you'll really like the GLK.
I agree with NYCGLK about the Xenons; I wish I'd held out for them when I bought my GLK.

In Canada, it's easy to find a GLK with all 3 AMG pack, Premium pack, and Technology pack.
Trying to find one already built with all 3 packages with Keyless Go, HK Sound, & Backup camera options is damn near impossible. That was the case for me 3 weeks ago.

Really didn't understand why they wouldn't just order all GLKs here with Tech pack with the rear camera option included; its only a $450 addition.

Its only $450 or its only $1100. Well it like going to the candy store, got to have it or nice to have. How deep are the pockets. My thoughts were always about convenience and gadgets the looks were always there so the AMG pkg was not that important and keyless would have been a must have had they offered it when I bought mine but the camera became a nice to have and now that I have it I love it. I live on the inside not the outside but then again the outside of the GLK speaks for itself.
