Some insights on upgrading to a facelift model.

First off, I will preface it with the fact I do work for a dealership, but I spend my hard earned money on the cars in my driveway.

Last night we finally pulled the trigger on my wifes 2013 GLK. We ended up getting a pretty interesting spec...

2013 GLK350W2
Polar White/Almond-Mocha MB Tex
Q01 Pkg - P1 Pkg w/o Panorama Sunroof (Wife never used it in her current car)
Multimedia
Heated Seats
Lane Tracking
Lighting
Appearance pkg.

Her 2011 was a great car, very comfy and was reliable except for the tires on the car that just seemed to give it a rough ride at times. The new Almond/Mocha interior is a huge upgrade with the dark carpets this year so she was excited to get the lighter interior for once (we both hate light carpets as they tend to get destroyed quickly). Overall she is very happy and so am I as the '13 has more features than her '11 had so it will be even better for the few road trips we take each year.

I wanted to the same when I saw the new one, I liked it. But then decided to stay with the one I have (2011) since its still very new with less than 25K KM on it. Congrats on your new car and post pics please.

I've put dark carpets in light-colored interiors for years... looks great and really makes light-colored interiors practical!

Enjoy!
