First Look: 2010 Mercedes-Benz GLK - The GLK will be introduced this summer in Europe in an attempt to fill a gap in the company's lineup, a size class in the marketplace that's already occupied by archrival BMW with its X3, among others. (more)

The local Seattle dealer is hosting 6 GLKs from the Factory for the next day or so, I think they are getting up to speed on the vehicles. I saw two dark blue, two white and a dark red, and I have to say all look very good. Various interior colors, black, tan and gray. I really like all of them. Compact, but still roomy. Just bought a C350 for my self, but snapped a few photos to show the wife - she really digs this car, perhaps it will be time to introduce her to Mercedes in the spring...

We're also considering a Volvo XC90 and the boss wants to drive both again before making a decision, which we'll probably do within the next week or so. Salesman couldn't/wouldn't give numbers. Anyone have any ideas as to what MB might do in the way of lease programs to get this guy off the ground?

Replying to: crestonave (Dec 07, 2008 4:49 am) I have seen a few slightly used ML 350s for low to mid 30's - so I would expect them to careful with the price - we shall see. Saw several at the auto show and the local Seattle dealer hosted ~ 7 of them in September for regional training I think. Saw a Navy Blue with tan interior - looked great!

Replying to: murphydog (Dec 08, 2008 7:32 pm)  Perhaps MB will come out with an aggressive lease program just to get some on the road as a way of introducing them to the public. In any case, our dealer has our indication of interest and told us that he'd be back to us when he has numbers. I'll post as soon as I get them. She's also looking at the Volvo XC90 and wants to drive both again before making a final decision.

Replying to: crestonave (Dec 09, 2008 4:38 am) Keep us posted, my wife is cross shopping against the RX350 - thinks the changes made for 2010 are bad, and is thinking the '09s will be a steal come spring. I am biased (of course) really like both the ML and the GLK. Come spring if I can find an ML with ~ 12,000 miles I may "suggest" it instead. Good luck!
