They always have a few items in their show-room for people who can't order in advance. Of course, buying a car directly at the factory is even a better deal, especially at the current exchange rates to the German mark, especially. Talk to your local dealer and ask for a mailing address to the company headquearters overseas - don't order through the American dealer if you are trying to get the best deal. My local credit union was willing to finance the purchase of a new car directly overseas 0 ask yours as you'll need to pay everything in advance. Mercedes has an 'indecent' waiting-list of back-orders, so you might better look for something else unless your trip can be planned many months in advance. Happy long-distance shopping, Werner @ ut-ngp (.ARPA or .UUCP)
