Wagon Delivery Today

Picked up my new Lunar Blue wagon with the Designo light brown interior today. I was able to drive it for ~100 miles and loved every minute of it...the power, the handling, the ride...awesome all around. Here are a few iPhone pics; apologies for the crappy quality.

Nice combo! I'm currently looking into a 15 wagon with Designo options. What made you end up going with the Designo light brown? That Designo configurator on MBUSA's website is so terrible at depicting what the actual colors look like- how did you know which color to decide on the interior?

Many thanks. There happened to be a white wagon with the light brown interior in the dealer when I made the order. We went down to look at it and realized we liked it better than any of the standard interior options. Took the guesswork out of the useless images on the website...

Nice wagon, really classic color combo that should stand the test of time. I also ordered designo interior and found that pictures on mb website and even samples at the dealer where not helping much... I looked at a lot of pictures on google to get a sense of actual look and went with mystic red leather. Light brown was my previous choice on first build but decided to try something different since I had to reorder car... Cant wait to post pics!

When is your wagon expected to arrive? I'd really appreciate it if you posted pictures of the Mystic Red as that's the interior color I think I'm going to order for the car. What color exterior did you go for?

I guess you were quite lucky since Designo isn't a very common option. I don't think any cars on my dealer's lot have it. I don't even think they have samples of the Designo materials.

On the Mercedes-amg.com site, click on INTERIOR, you can see all interior colors choices, or at least get an idea of it.

Thanks for the tip. That configurator is a little better than MBUSA's designo web page. I've been combing through Google images and cars.com to find various designo interiors on the W212 to see how it looks like in real life lighting and the Mystic Red is really tickling my fancy.

Forum member SDMF has a couple of nice pics of a black E550 with mystic red interior. Gives a good idea of color... I would have like it a bit more red but heck MB is conservative! I saw a new bmw 320 (entry level car...) with nice red interior yesterday.

Cant find how to post link to thread with mobile app but thread is "my black e550 with designo options".

That's why it's taking so long to get here... at least break in is done!! LOL
It actually looks more like Tenorite or Designo graphite grey but yes it gives a pretty good idea of what the beast will look like!

Looks very, very cool indeed. I'm still on the hunt and clearly have started reaching deep into the guts of the interwebs if I found a thread from 2014. Before you sell, if you ever do, please let me know.

I'm so jealous of people with non-black interiors

Congrats!
