W164 production question

Hi all! I'm trying to buy a car right now for export. I'm interested in W164, but I need it to be atleast 3 years old to avoid crazy registration fees (in the arrival country). So I was wondering if the "2006 ML's" Where being made in 05. Technicly speaking "2006 model" that is made in 05.

This question is for US owners only, I know in Europe they got them earlier.

Thanks!

I believe the 2006 models were released in 2005

Yes, 06 models began in 05. I took delivery of my 06 ML500 in Sept of 05.

Correct, first part of the year in 05 the 164 was moving down the assembly line.
