    Was at the dealer today. New C class will be sedan only in NA. They’re not bringing the wagon here, and no coupe or cab.
    also missing 4 cylinders.

    Is that why the C43 wagon base price went up like $9k this year?

    I heard sedans only as well. I wonder if they will eventually bring the other models over as supply chains catch up.

    As much as people don't buy wagons, I thought they also didn't buy sedans? Baffled.

    They buy utility vehicles of varying sizes.

    That sucks they won’t bring the c wagon. Hopefully they don’t kill the e wagon.

    E wagon is getting lower numbers here starting next year. They’re not selling enough of them, just no demand compared to SUVs. Because of lower numbers, dealers are only going to order 53 and 63s next year. Same goes for E coupes and cabs. I’m considering moving to an E53 cab and there are no allocations until October next year at the earliest. The prices have also jumped considerably, optioned out its 120k now (was 106k 2 years ago with the same options).

    Most likely, in 2 years time with the new E class, the coupe and cab will be gone. Fucking SUVs.

    E wagons and the Audi wagons are probably going to retain their value pretty well in the coming years.

    Ha ha you have to be a real brand fan (I didn't use the word fanboy because I know the MB love here is rampant and I'm just having fun) to be exited by this car. MB can't meet regulations with their V8's and aren't ready for EV so this is their compromise complete with F1 buzzwords to distract from the fact a kid in a $30k WRX will be laughing at the exhaust note of your $100k+ Benz.
