Aren't you tempted to wait a few months for the new V8(s) (450/550)?sosh - 2/9/2005 10:40 AM
Have one on order for mid August to replace my 02 ML500 and it too will be a 500. Colors and options will be selected when I see the first car my dealer gets in March.
Are you in Canada? I don't think US Launch Package ahs been announced yet?SweetTobyBoy - 2/9/2005 2:07 PM
I've ordered the ML350 with the full launch package 140, 141 and 143. I only had a choice between silver and black so I took silver with black leather. I may take the ML500 also with the full launch package once the prices are released.
If its only a matter of a month or so I would wait. My current lease is up in Aug and thats when I would like to make the change. Any idea as to when the new engines will be available?? I am happy with the current V8 and its been bullet proof so farGregW / Oregon - 2/9/2005 2:32 PM

AFIK, there is nothing definite yet on the new V8 availability. I speculate, however, that it will be this fall. The new engine has the latest technology, incuding four variable cams, resulting in greater power, economy and cleanliness. May be available in a couple different displacemnts, 4.5 & 5.5L. Pending on lease issues, worth waiting for. The 4.5 will be more powerful than the current 5.0L.If its only a matter of a month or so I would wait.
