Picking Up SLK350 on Wednesday Finally! Quick Question!
Hello Guys,
New at this forum but I have a question regarding factory installed options at the dealer.
It seems in Vancouver BC, Canada it is unheard of to get a manual gearbox in any Mercedes, I had to special order. I left my deposit as usual however, 1 month into it I had a change of heart. I wanted to purchase the sport package instead but the dealer told me that I could not change my order because they would not be able to sell the manual gearbox equipped car here.
Now, the car is here and I am to pick it up however I really wanted the factory aero package on the car. I can do wheels myself not a problem but I find that the factory Aerodynamics are hard to duplicate for fit and finish.
Does MB have a dealer installed Aero Kit for the Vehicle? If not, do I have to purchase this vehicle since I ordered it? The dealer says they will hold my deposit until the vehicle sells, can they do this?
Any help is appreciatted.
Thanks
Raymond

This is my advice, cancel your order. Take that $1000 dollars back and order a new SLK with what you want.
Good luck! And I hope you get what you want.

I can get either the AMG sport package kit or the SLK55 kit for you. If thats the only thing holding up your decision on picking up the car, you dont have to worry. Shoot me an e-mail or give me a call, I live in the same city as you.
