I really wanted to do it, but I used all my money buying the car. I should have gotten a loan and went anyway. Curt Rich is a sales rep at a large dealer in Houston. He handles the European deliveries for his dealer. In addition, has done at least two European deliveries himself. Here are links to two articles by Curt which give much more info than the MBUSA web site, which is still very informative. If there is anyway you can do the Euro delivery, do it. I am still kicking myself for not doing it. I would have been there during October fest.
