Talked to Merc, no dice on the GLK because it's a 2010 model.

Yeah that is pretty much what I have been hearing

I might have to go check out the Q5 this weekend, it seems to be beating the GLK in every major review.

Mercedes is pretty low on the reliability scale, I think the Audi is better

Just waiting them out for a good deal to creep up, either low financing or a nice fat cash discount. If they come down to 1.9% financing or less I will probably pull the trigger early, they will need at least a 4000$ incentive to get me in early for a cash discount.

What I can't decide on is if I want White... or Black

I am leaning towards white, but with the new rims I just picked up I am noticing that white gets really dirty in like 5 minutes of driving.

Benz accessories

Also, if I should fork out the extra 800$ for a set of 20" 5-twin spoke rims, I like the 19" 10 spoke ones, but the 20's seem to stand out really nice on this model.

(see page 26 of link for the two wheels).

Apologize reviving this up but just wondering with the new Mercedes-Benz GLK 350. the one i see uses the V6 engine...does this one has the same thing...? Anyway, the GLK has been featured in one of the auto shows here in our place and the exterior was someone similar to the x3 of BMW although the thing that differs is that back portion as well as the lights...
