2012 ML AMG Sport Package

Here are a couple pics of the exterior. Like the front more than the standard version.

The ride height seems quite low. Is that because of the AMG package? or these 4 guys are just very tall.

Having a hard time deciding btw this and the G350.

I don’t know, maybe it’s me but the more I look at the photos of the 2012 the more it looks like what a 1-series (X1) BMW would look like if BMW went in that direction.

It looks like a “mini-ute” instead of what the next ML should have looked like. Even the wheels look small in most of the photos I have seen and I know they’re not.

I just hope it will look much better in person.

Sport Package availability.

I'm sure it will be, though I have not seen any official timeline. For the W164 it was within 6 months or so of launch, I believe. The interior sport package is initially available.

Same here. All those goodies add up the price fast. I'm looking at Premium 2, Dynamic Handling, Auburn Brown Leather, Lighting, Interior Sports, & hitch. Probably pushing $15k. Didn't see a listing for the standard (not panorama) sunroof in the ordering guide.

AMG styling (excluding wheels) will be standard for all W166 M-Class models in Canada.

So why can't we have it sooner if we pay for it here in US?

I don't think the release date has been specified; it's just not listed in the initial dealer sales guide. Again, with the W164 it was available just a few months after launch.

Don't be mistaken we pay for everything in Canada it just up front included.
Some things may be exclusive in both countries. Not sure we get the tricked out cup holders.

I'd rather get the body kit up front rather then tricked out cup holders.

More info

This is from Daimler Europe:

Special Edition 1 model to be introduced for the market launch
As part of the market launch of the new M-Class, Mercedes-Benz will be offering a limited special model called “Edition 1”. Among other things, this vehicle will feature an AMG sports package for the exterior as well as an especially exclusive and impressive interior. Customers can also begin ordering the M-Class Edition 1 on July 11, with prices beginning at €55,700 (€66,283 including 19 percent sales tax) for the ML 250 BlueTEC 4MATIC Edition 1.

So, if the AMG package is available to Europe by November, it should also be available here, unless the marketing people muddy things up. The price in Europe is a whopping €9500 (not including VAT), but that is for both exterior and interior. US will likely get separate packages for those.

No idea. I would expect to see the Sport exterior within the first 6 months, like on the W163, but that's just a guess. Availablity of a 2WD version is unannounced.

Greg, Any idea as to when the 550 will be available. Is the base price of the 550 the same as 2011?

Thanks!
