RandyG: can I ask you, what do you think is good looking? Nobody's ever seemed to touch on that. I personally love the C55 interior. All the chrome accents are elegant, however I'm kinda torn between the luxy look of the wood or the sporty aluminum. I think the feel of the materials are great, especially compared some other manufacturers.
PCB: Definitely must feel exclusive especially with the Sak's name appeal to it!
Isn't it a pain to keep the white clean after a few weeks? I'd love to see that in a brick or natural finish like in some of the Designo's.
Keep it clean and shiny!

I know there are threads on here already talking about how everyone just hates the interior and thinks its cheap as Randy mentioned above. Everyone has their right to their own opinion, I too first saw the 300 sport in black interior and thought whoa this is el cheapo. Then I saw the lux version in black and it looked a bit better with the wood, then I saw the grey/black interior with the silver trim and was sold, it looks that good! I will say that this Saks car looks great in person, the interior looks like it will be a pain to actually keep that color and not turn a dirty grey, but it does look sharp. I've also noticed that if you go with the full leather package, it includes leather inserts in the doors which make it look more upscale and on par with what past C's have been, I think the full leather comes with the Saks package but is extra on all other models.

That interior looks absolutly amazing. They should make that an option. Tint is always a great mod
If you don't mind me asking, how much more is this edition than a normal C350?

Shake-I got the car for 49K after all the fees and such.
It's about the same as a normal 350 once you have it loaded with the same features.
I do see how people think the interior could get dirty quick. I don't have any kids however and don't really hall others in the back often.
I think the trick is a regular monthly cleaning and see how it goes.

PCB, I have the 07 E Saks. Same interior as yours. After 10 months, My wife's jeans have discolored our white leather seats. I hope I dont have to pay extra when I turn in the car after the lease.

Nickle- Did you find any product that had you known your wives jeans would have faded the seats you could have applied in advance?

I just use a damp rag on my Ash colored seats, takes the blue hue right off. Sometimes its more than just the jean fade and I use a leather cleaner from Armour All. I stress..its a leather cleaner made by Armour All, comes in a brown squeeze bottle. Not Armour All itself in the pump, that liquid contains ingredients that will strip your leather of its natural oils, plus make your a$$ slide around the seat all day.
