The S class is being released next week in Canada. All Canadian cars are AWD.

S550 4matic LE
visited my dealer yesterday - he told me AWD not until spring, last time i visited back in the summer it was supposed to be November. What happened?!

Usually AWD for new generations come out end of year, not happy about waiting for spring.

On another note, took a test drive in the 2014. Great car, super smooth. A silver with sport package (the wheels resembling the S63's) looks amazing. The plain standard car no options looks terrible. Mainly bc of lackluster wheels imo

Are you guys referring to ordering a car?

I don't think 4matics as a whole are delayed. I have a build date for an s63 which only comes 4matic for 12/10.

4 matic started build in early Oct, it was suppose release on mid-end Nov. but still no exact release day from my dealer. My car can be here by mid Nov at the dealership. Why MB want those car sitting in their lot for extra few month?

4matic's are currently at the ports. Just waiting for MBUSA to give the OK to release them to the dealers. They should be at all dealers within the next couple of weeks. Just keep in mind, if you ordered the car it doesnt mean you will have it this month. Your car delivery is based on your dealers production slots and when that slots scheduled build time was.

My dealer actually called me and said they have the Launch Edition 4Matic in stock now, but not able to release yet.
