Dealer told me 2013ML delivery date July......

I thought if you pre-ordered the ML350 the soonest you would get your vehicle would be mid September or early October. I had a dealership tell me today, if I pre-ordered one now, I could get the end of July delivery date. Any truth to this?

Depends when MBUSI releases the 13s. They won't release if too many 12s on lot. We know that answer. The dealer is giving you an ML from their july allotment
(perhaps large allotment). It must be same spec as they have ordered. Or no orders made yet. Lock in time is a week or two MAX so if u want it or need to change color or option better move soon

Sorry don't know freeze date for mine yours may be later depends if they modified a dealer order. I'm first alotment at mine. Build is July 27 delivery Sept 10. So the US guys might be getting fed BS by some dealers.
Note. As of last Wed no Premium Pkg can be ordered. No parts. Change to Calcite White soon see if you can get Build date. Did u actually see order or just a configuration on PC? Check so u get PremPkg

Ive got an October delivery date, but the shipping time would be about 6 weeks longer for me as I am a long way from Alabama.
