Has your car been surveyed at the VPC?

I'm curious how you are getting such frequent status updates. Are you asking the dealer?

TomS, I have been asking my dealer constantly about updates on my car and they are always helpful and happy to help.

They understand the excitement that comes from what we do.

Don't be afraid to ask your dealer about your car. They should be happy to help.

I've had an order in since November and have asked my salesperson several times about it. Today I asked a sales manager and he said he can't find the order in the system. Make sure you ask someone knowledgeable!

Wish we knew what day in May is the "2015 S class release date" so that cars sitting at VPC can be delivered. MBUSA mystery.

How long was the production cycle for 2014 models? Like 4-6 months? Kinda uncool to 2014 buyers, one has to wonder what the underlying reason is for that.

My order was for a 2014 S63. Kept getting pushed back then turned to a 2015 which started production end of march. I placed my order in November. Now despite all that it sits at VPC because it's a 2015.

My dealer has 2014 and 2015's coming from the VPC at the same time. Somehow that seems rather strange to me.

I suspect there are a lot of 2014's around so in order to keep their values as high as possible maybe they aren't going to advertise the 2015 until a little later when the 14's are depleted.

This is only a guess. I have no real idea.

Thanks! At least we know 2015's moving out of VPC!

Maybe website updates on 5/1? They did say May.
