Please see my previous post for confirmed MY14 ML-Series changes.

I have attached the attached list for the current order entry configuration options for the 2014 ML63.

Don't let page 3 of this list freak you out - it only shows "black leather" as a interior option is a system - the "real" interior options are shown on page #4 under options.

Order bank for MY13 ML63's was closed last week - meaning dealers cannot enter any new orders for the MY13 ML63.

That said, if you placed a order with your dealer for a MY13 ML63 - and that order with your dealer has not been confirmed/allocated with the factory - then that order between you and your dealer - if it does not have a confirmed factory PO and scheduled production date - then you need to sit down and discuss with that dealer what you and that dealer should do going forward.

2014 ML63 production schedule has not been set - MY13 ML63's with confirm factory PO's that are not completed before July MY13 production cutoff - will be given the option to be converted/re-confirmed to MY14 ML63's - and those converted orders will be at the top of the MY14 ML63 production list.

Based on the information dealers have at hand now - it is possible to configure a order for a MY14 - confirm with deposit to be at the top of the MY14 list for that dealer - however dealers do not know yet the MY14 base MSRP - which I personally to reasonably expect to change/increase 3%-5% over MY13.

MY14 ML63 order entry is already open - however without the final base MSRP - but ML63's are tightly controlled and entered orders only become factory orders when confirmed back from the factory and assigned PO# and assigned a scheduled production date. This part of the process is commonly called "allocation".

At this moment the factory cannot not confirm any MY14 ML63 orders for production - personally I expect MY14 ML63 production not be be much more than MY13 - personally I expect ML63 production to start late September - and fully expect ML63's will continue to be tightly allocated.

Keep the beat !

 

Fabbrisd1,

Thanks for the info! Very helpful.

 

What's "Splitview"?

 

Watching your navigation screen as the driver and your passenger can be watching a movie on their side of the centre Comand. Very cool.

 

waste of money, you'll never use it. my dad has it on his s550 and it not even configured in north America to let you use it as you'd think.

 

I agree. I can't see the value when everyone has notepads or Smartphones theses days for watching movies they download off the internet. I can't remember the last time I bought a DVD.

...plus, how frustrating or boring it would be for your passenger to be watching something that you, as the driver, can't see. Dosen't sound like a fun trip.

 

I know your post is dated but how did you make out with a confirmed delivery date. I have mine ordered with deposit but still don't expect to see it until end of Oct. Obsidian black, porcelain interior, performance package and premium package and a number of other incidentals. Switching the factory 21" wheels for 22" HREs .
