Hidden Special Order Codes??

Thinking about ordering a 2013 for Mrs. Rizzo.
Does anyone know if there are "hidden" special order codes for the GLK?

BMW used to have codes like a black headliner, sunshades, etc.

Also - what is up with the Green GLK's? I dont see jade green listed anywhere on MBUSA, but see green GLK's, E's and S-class cars. They list the matte colors for other cars, but not green. Wonder if they would do a matte white GLK?

The SPC codes are very limited for the GLK. No green is available on the '13. Looking at the color options for the '13 the designo white is not showing as available.

There is a "hidden" one - in the sense of the German pricelist, with all options available in Germany (Europe). Interesting reading. Will be provided (in German!) if so wished.

I think that was my question.

Special order codes were hidden by our dealer. When we placed our order, special order items weren't mentioned. As a result, the passenger door doesn't have the seat controls and memory buttons. Bummer!

Just because the salesman "forgot" to mention it doesn't mean it is hidden.
The option you mentioned was listed as one of many options.

True. But if you walk in cold & nobody offers them, then special order items are unknown.

Only six are available on the '12 GLK
-Sahara Beige Leather (comes with black headliner) (N/C, req Full Leather Pkg)
-Power/Memory Passenger Seat ($365)
-In Dash 6CD Changer (for non COMAND cars) ($480)
-Black Ash Wood (N/C)
-Heated Windshield Washer Reservoir ($175)
-Storage Box Under Front Seats ($75)

The SPC codes do carry a one-time charge of $250 on top of option cost but only one charge is applicable so you can order multiple special order items and only one $250 surcharge will be applied to the build.

That happened on the first Infinity coupe I bought... I refused delivery!

MUST have memory seats!

Thanks for this!!!

Are there any pics of the black headliner/Sahara combo on here? I'm really wanting that headliner. Too hard to search for, returns pages of results...

How do you find this stuff??

Thanks again.

I am an internet manager for a MB dealer in so cal.
We had one come in this year with the sahara beige leather interior and it was a customer order so it did not live long here. Looked really sharp with the black exterior.

I just picked up my GLK 2012 from sindelfingen, it's being shipped home now. I SPC ordered the Sahara with the black ash....it really does look nice. The leather actually feels different than the other MBZ leather as well, really soft,conforms to the body better. I drove 3 1/2 weeks, 4 countries, and really abused the interior...it didn't show any signs of it...held up well...even looked good with the tomatoes from the pizza lol 250.00...one charge..includes as many SPC as you wish

Do you know of any codes for the SLS?

My dealer seems totally incompetent. They claim to be unable to get me one without contrasting stitching. Then I see other MBs like this S550 on eBay with a granite dash:

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/ws/eB...84.m1438.l2649

Just really annoying they can't seem to order a car that costs around twice as much as that in all black... much less anything more extravagant like factory painted headlight housings or blacked out taillights.

Regards,
Tom

Tom,

Nothing hidden really on the SLS as orders are very common on the car. Pick your exterior/interor/wheels/std audio or B&O/Carbon or regular brakes/reg or performance suspension/carbon or aluminum trim and yes or no to the car cover.
