400 Limited Edition R Class Available



Want to make your Mercedes-Benz R-Class look more aggressive and unique???

Mercedes-Benz has just announced a new, limited edition appearance package for the 2007 R-Class intended to do just that. They have combined the Chrome Package and the Aerodynamic Set into one, exciting package designed to give your R-Class that added edge.
This combination package is limited to ONLY 400 NATIONWIDE!!! This special package is available on the R350 and the R320CDI models.
Ordinarily, these two separate packages would cost $1350, but Mercedes-Benz is offering this limited production run of only 400 at a 30% discount!!!
These discounted appearance packages WILL NOT last long! Contact Mercedes Benz of Hagerstown for details on how to get one!
The Chrome Package includes:
  • Chrome Air Intake Bridge that gives the front of your R-Class additional allure.
  • Chrome Lower Bumper Pieces that create an eye-catching ground effect.
  • Chrome Door Handle Protectors save your R-Class from unsightly scratches while accenting the chrome in the door handles.

The Aerodynamic Set includes:
  • Front Fender Extensions that give the R-Class a dynamic, lowered look.
  • Rear Roof Spoiler that accentuates the sporty lines of the R-Class
-hope it improves sales....

Re: 400 Limited Edition R Class Available

They're really trying to push this car, and I doubt a chrome package to tart up the front a bit will help any out the door...

Chrysler???

This vehicle has nothing to do with Chrysler. It is 100% Benz. I love the R. It is the best kept secret MB has. Great price, tons of room and the best highway ride of any vehicle with this kind of size. The styling turns many off, because it looks like a wagon or a van. i believe it's a few years ahead of its time. In 5 years crossovers will be the norm, and it won't seem so radical.

Re: 400 Limited Edition R Class Available

I like the R-class, it looks like a beast. It really ain't that bad. The problem with it is that it has come 4 years to late. The market for large MPVs have shrunk significantly the latest years, and that's all thanks to the SUV. Moms with big number of children prefer SUVs since they are more compact, luxurious and have a much higher hipp factor. As a matter of fact SUVs have even leeched sales from sedans and estates. The next R-class better be a gigantic SAC.

Re: 400 Limited Edition R Class Available

The R-Class is special: it combines the car-like feel of an estate and the space of an MPV. Seating 7 comfortably in a Mercedes is a no mean feat, and if I'm a family man I'd certainly get one... Because Audi and BMW doesn't offer me quite the same thing.

Re: 400 Limited Edition R Class Available

The problem with this vehicle is the fact that despite Mercedes going on about it being a crossover vehicle, the ''grand sports tourer,'' it's no different, though undoubtedly better, than any other people mover. The concept is simply not unique (special?) enough, and I believe this is where BMW will make sure they get it right with the X6. Nevertheless the R-class is undoubtedly a very very fine vehicle in most respects. Shame about the rather pedestrian rear end styling.

While we know sales have been lackluste in the US, I'd be interested to know what the global figures are like?

Far200, I believe both 6 and 7 seater versions are available in various markets.

The R class is unique enough, there are hardly any of them on the road. When a chrome package is described as "exciting" and the "aerodynamic set" will give a MPV added edge, you know they are extremely desperate.
