Designo process
A quick question for those in-the-know:
I want to go with Designo for an S212 - can that car be ordered with separate options (e.g. designo exterior colour but standard leather interior and wood)?
What is the difference (apart from colour) between Designo leather and standard leather?
What is the time frame for delivery of a custom ordered designo car?
Thanks

You can select designo options individually (designo paint but standard leather, etc)
designo leather is nappa, the standard leather is not - nappa is softer with less visible grain
designo typically adds 6-8 weeks to production time

Thanks for the helpful information and the configurator link. I will be speaking to a dealer, however, any ideas on the cost of the paintwork and designo leather?
I also wonder, when ordering the Sand leather, what colour would the roof liner be by default?
Thanks

designo leather is $2400, but you must first equip the car with standard leather, so $2500 + $2400 = $4900. I would also recommend heated rear seats for an extra $550 if you have rear passengers often.
The roof liner will be black fabric by default. You can upgrade to Alcantara, IIRC it is $2600.
Edit: these are Canadian prices and apply only to the E-Class Sedan/Wagon (not E63).

A final question: how much do dealers typically ask for downpayment on a designo ordered car? I am not asking for anything fancy, basically colour and perhaps leather.
Thanks
