2014 Mercedes S550
Proof of MBC...

Just ordered my 2015, this time with Magic Body Control and HUD. All other specs will match my 2014 build. How will I know I have it so that I don't leave the dealership without that spec checked?

Side note......Got Mercedes New Orleans to give me a 5% discount. Big difference from the 0% I got from Houston, lol. Anybody know if they're a good dealer or not?

As far as I know the suspension mode (Comfort,Sport) button in the centre console is marked with ABC in vehicles equipped with Magic Body Control function.

I found some pictures that may help

Kratos, congratulations! I remember how excited you were when you showed us photos of the 2014 S550. Now you will be jubilant and on cloud nine with the 2015 S550. Wow!

Congrats on both of your purchases. Have a question for you, i am in houston as well and looking to get 2015 model as well, but every dealer i spoke to didnt want to give any discount, so is 5% that you got from New Orleans dealer is that applies only to cars that built to order? Or is it applies to the ones they have in stock?

Thanks in advance
