thanks for the heads up guys.

i noticed the night package changes only the rims on the vehicle (and doesnt add all the black accents). maybe a web site glitch right now. similarly, when you select wood/leather steering wheel you don't see it pictured in the interior when you choose it.

also noticed that some pricing looks a little different from what we have been communicated. wood/leather steering wheel is a 590 dollar option, not standard, on the 550, for example. heated 2nd row seats is 620 dollars on the site, vs standard as we were told.

I noticed the same differences on the web site. Also, the configurator doesn't have pricing for the designo leather seats. No doubt MBUSA will update such things in the coming days and weeks. At least we can say its official.

With my build I noticed I'm being charged separately for Lane tracking/Blink Spot Assist - $875. This should not be the case since it is part of the Premium 1 Package.

Also, it's a little disappointing that remote start is part of a mbrace Connect (5-year complimentary service). After the 5th year I have to pay for a service that should be standard on should a luxury brand.

Also the base MSRP for the 450 is $$68,700 not, $68, 890.

yeah I'm sure they'll sort through all these issues in time

generally speaking our configurator kinda sucks compared to other countries. but I guess that's always been true

If you go to "learn more" for your 550 you'll see designo there with the price you expect . And wood/leather shows as standard. And night package shows the accents, etc.

Inconsistencies and glitches seem to be isolated to the configurator itself
