I probably shouldn’t be telling you this (seeing as how I’ll be attempting to procure one for myself), but if you’re in the market for a new 2010 Mercedes GLK350, American Express will be giving away three of the new SUV’s tomorrow via their My Wishlist contest. Assuming you live in the U.S., are an American Express cardholder and meet the various eligibility requirements, the rules to win are simple: head over to the American Express My Wishlist page, unlock the GLK350 by entering your Amex card info, and when the three GLK’s become available at 12:00 PM EST, 3:00 PM EST and 7:00 PM EST tomorrow December 18th, hit the “GO FOR IT” button and pray, pray, pray. You can press the button as many times as you wish, and if luck is on your side and you click at precisely the right time, the 2010 Mercedes GLK shall be yours.
Of course, before entering you should read the My Wishlist complete set of rules for yourself to ensure that I haven’t forgotten to stipulate anything, but above is the quick summary of what you need to know if you want to win.
As for what exactly you’re bestowed with if you are one of the chosen three American Express cardholders, the exact prize is a model year 2010 Mercedes-Benz GLK350 in Arctic White exterior with black MB-Tex interior; a Premium Package which includes a 115V AC power outlet, compass in rear view mirror, auto-dimming mirrors, power driver’s seat and steering column with memory, rain-sensing wipers, SIRIUS Satellite Radio (with a 6-month subscription included) and power liftgate; and heated front seats. To avoid the tax problems that arise when you’re given a new vehicle – the problems that Oprah made famous not so long ago – American Express is also tossing in a check for roughly $35,000 to the winners, ensuring Uncle Sam gets his dues as well.
And that’s just about it ladies and gentlemen. Set your alarms, get your clicking finger ready and prepare to do battle with legions of American Express customers – it all goes down tomorrow.
