One could certainly place orders with dealers from April 15th until June 15th but MBUSA will not accept or provide a PO. My information could be dated so clearly I could be wrong but that was my understanding.
Had a great visit with factory reps at the NYC. In short, my dealer is wrong, you are absolutely correct. I learned other thing to be posted with more pics next week on mr return (I am working off an iPhone now).

Well looks like not much has change. I like the emerald green color. I wish they had 20in 5 spoke AMG rims for 600 and 550.

Anyone have any idea what the S550 Plug-in will start at and whether it will have 4MATIC?

I love how it is only sold in 12 states and 8 are in cold weather climates and they decided it shouldn't have an awd variant.

I'm betting it is a physical space issue much like magic body control vs 4matic

I didn't even know that was on the radar for now. Sorry, I have no idea and heard nothing.

Can you special order Magic Sky Control for the S550 sedan? I know it can be ordered on the coupe but I haven't seen it on the sedan.

Thank you! Exactly what I needed. European or US delivery will now come down to what kind of discount I can get on an ordered car for US delivery. Unfortunately the October-December time frame for european delivery is at a very busy time for me at work so taking 10 days off may not work. Park Place still sells every coupe they can get their hands on (in fact they traded 2 GL550's for S coupes recently from a couple of dealerships in more rural areas that don't have the S Coupe demand we have in Dallas). If needed I will fly over, pick it up, drive it 1 mile to the shipper in Sindlefingen, and come home. Let the games begin....

No. It was removed as an option for the sedan last year (March 2014).

I don't think so. I think it's only available for the coupes and the Maybach.

Put it differently, I'm not sure that they make it in the S sedan size anymore.
