That said as 604 C63 notes in Canada fabric pretty much disappeared on all cars sold in Canada in the early '90s and the vinyl MB Tex is really old technology.
My seats are two tone red and black with full power adjustment for height, tilt of the cushion angle of the back rest and adjustment of the side bolsters in the seat backs.
I am not sure which code refers to the seats and which to the door panels but my codes for two tone are X50 and X83
Like stated earlier, those are the standard seats in the US if you don't order the leather package, you get half power half manual and the MB-Tex seats and no power adjustments on the doors. The MB-Tex wears like iron, you can put 100k on the and the seats look like new unlike the leather where the bolsters wear like crazy after half the mileage.

Looks like 318 is the package name to get you the full power leather seats:

318 AMG Seating Package
Premium Leather Seats
Driver and Passenger Memory Seats
4 way adjustable steering column.

This is only for the Sedan also, Coupe always got memory seats with adjustments on the door I believe.

That is because we just had to clearcoat the vinyl which is solid colour from the top to the fabric backing whereas all leathers unless they are tanned are coated base leathers. I actually bought my 2011 E wagon with Artico for this reason. It is a better grade than MB-Tex and is as subtle as the leather in time.
