Just took delivery tonight of my ‘19 Wagon. Well worth the 10 month wait. South Bay Mercedes took great care of me and worked hard to get me the best deal possible despite the crappy MF rates currently.

Configuration:

- Magno Grey
- Black Leather with Metal Weave
- AMG Black Forged Wheels
- AMG Performance Exhaust
- Exterior Lighting Package
- AMG Night Package

Here you go. She looks a bit lifted since since the dealer set the suspension mode lifted until I picked up to avoid and scraping.

Rinse off with clean water, wash with soap (with no wax agent built in) and water, then rinse with clean water and fry.

Very straightforward.

It's up to you. Mine is going for xpel stealth on every surface Expensive around 6k, but worth it for me. Though next time I may get a regular color and then xpel stealth it. Can get matte color any color and cheaper too

I spent 4500 on Xpel wrap on my 17 R8 was a great car but was also necessary to have a second car due to my 50 mile per day drive and R8 being 1.25 per mile. Kept it 10-11 months decided to keep my MB Electric until it's lease was done and just drive 1 car, sold the R8. Was only driving the R8 1-2 days a week and on weekends.

Regretted investing the money in the Xpel since I sold it early at a small loss and the Xpel didn't yield a nickle more for it. I've decided I'll never fall in love with any vehicle past 3 years so I'd rather invest the bare minimum in oil changes and minimum maintenance required and give it back at a guaranteed residual regardless of little rocks and scratches not chargeable or within lease limits. Also accident and diminished value gives me peace of mind.

Although with the MF rates currently at 7% I'm seriously considering paying cash and saving the 20-25K in finance charges but then I own it and any minor imperfections means I'll get screwed on trade or sale might still be worth it at these rates.
