My local dealer doesn't have an allocation and the next closest dealers are even smaller and 200+ miles away. What is a reasonable way to find a dealer willing to get me my build? Just calling around to distant dealers at random feels weird.

Nothing weird about it. I had to call quite a few dealers before finding a build allocation that had the Head-Up Display and wouldn't require me to wait until second half of 2019. I would just email a bunch of dealerships and see who has something available. You can also check with Shahul on here -- I believe he has an E63S Wagon that is waiting to be released from VPC and ready to go.

Just call around until you find a dealer that wants your money.. I live close to Keys Mercedes in Sherman Oaks Ca., these guys wouldn't even place an order for me unless I gave them a non-refundable deposit of $10k.
So I called the dealer in Santa Monica and had my wagon in 5 weeks...and a small discount..

Let your fingers do the walking..

Thanks, I guess I'll start emailing around. If anyone has a preferred dealership let me know. I know there are a couple out there now but I want a very specific build.

I don't need the vehicle until May '19, hopefully that is realistic.

Does Anybody really have allocations - I have been waiting since June for my promised "August... No later than mid Sept" allocation

Did you buy your wagon from W.I Simonson?

Jesse Cannon-Wallace at Atlanta Classic Cars got my wagon, and she's awesome to work with. (770)279-3680 or jcw@atlantaclassiccars.com.

Hey Guys,

I have a crazy thing going on here.
As I was about to put an order for a 2019 E63 AMG Wagon ( of course) I see online that MB is about to do a mid-cycle face-lift on the E-Class... So Now comes the BIG question get my dream car or wait and get the updated version?
I have been day dreaming about an E63 Wagon for a while and just as I'm about to pull the trigger comes this new dilemma FML.

The other part of this nightmare is if I was to hold off and then the 2020 gets held up until God knows when because of some EPA BS then I won't see my car until 2021

and will discount

Buy the 19 wagon. You won't be disappointed. If you decide you like the face-lifted version in a year or two, when they are actually available, trade the 19. The car is so much fun...perfect blend of sport, elegance, and gangsta.

Hey, for a new member can you point me to a thread that explains how the allocations work? I have ordered a wagon for a May 2019 Euro delivery and got the PO with the confirmation date. Just curious about the allocation convo and if that has any effect on my order

susman@eurogermantown.com

If you have a PO you should be all set, has to be paid for before you go though

M5THIS

I agree 100% that it is a great car, my MAJOR concern is value on a trade once face-lift is out there and shaving $40k+ from my bank account lol

Ralcbah

I certainly understand that! You'll make the right call for yourself and your situation. When you do get it, enjoy it

AirKuhl

You have to factor in the value of the grin on your face from driving it every day for a year instead of waiting and worrying without one.
Life is short, you never get that year back.

True & True....I am waiting for another Baby ( Car ) that I am building as we speak and that could/ would probably hold me off and my wife from killing me lol....

Original Land Rover Defender 110 fully customized.

Getting into the Biz of making them and selling them if the price is right lol

Wassaby

If you got a PO there's nothing to worry about about your ED.

AirKuhl

Anyone know if MBUX will be part of the refresh?

Wassaby

I don't think so they will have MBUX. MBUX requires to many software and hardware changes to be used just for a refresh.

Carac

All signs point to the face lift coming in late 2020 as a 2021, at the earliest. There's always the chance that it comes in 2021 as a 2022MY.

I am walking away from my wagon order. I couldn't pass up on an investment for my business. It arrived today in the SF bay area. I can provide you with the sales guys info in you are interested.
