Just like Canada. I'll bet 10 to 1 that's what we'll have!

Nope, they'll be run flats

Unless they change it at the VPC, highly unlikely, I see the code R66 - Run Flat Tires (MOExtended) in the VMI code.




sorry guys

The pano roof is part of the Premium package, however they don't really advertise that you can order the Premium package without the pano roof. (in Canada anyway) Don't know how it works in the US but I seem to recall talking to a MB salesman at a car show in Naples Florida in Feb about ordering without the pano roof and if my memory serves me right it is possible. Someone posted months ago somewhere tha MB was having trouble getting enough roofs for the orders they had so they came up with this option.

It IS possible but wasn't until early March. When I ordered mine in January the option of eliminating the Pano roof was not possible, along with 'requiring' 4 wheel drive. My dealer went straight to MBUSA. However, just before deadline for any changes for the production of mine that option to eliminate for credit was added to the 250's just as it's been for the GLK350's. I immediately eliminated the Pano roof and that's how mine is built. The 4 wheel drive option is still mandatory on the GLK250.

I ordered mine in September, but in Canada. At that time the option of no roof was available here.
