Climate Comfort (code 401) is possible with designo leather.

That interior is just.... I'm speechless ! Wonder how it would look with a white exterior

Best looking E that I have seen on this forum.

i was thinking the same

im guessing you are not fujianese because all my fujianese friends likes to stick stuff on the passenger side of the dash (where the airbag is, i think it is really stupid)

I can't stop staring at the headliner... it looks so nice I want to eat it lol.

I also like those door lock nubs, are those part of Designo or are they aftermarket.

And yes I'm also Chinese, I have seen many of those ornaments in cars at Chinese malls in Canada haha.

SDMF

I am actually from Hong Kong moved to Canada

I really love the alcantara headlinear. I should have ordered the grey in color to make it even more stand out.

I think MB should make this option standard at least for E550 and E63.

FYI, those AMG door pins are genuine accessories for E class.

Hey I remember seeing your car on the street before. Nice and clean E-sedan and the personalized plate caught my attention. I'm pretty sure the Designo interior is superb! Gotta love the finish of that leather!

E550Shopper

Alright, Designo interiors are finally available in the U.S. now as well!

Question for you: In some of the Designo configurators, it looks like the glove box and other parts of the front interior might be done in Alcantara as well. Am I imagining that?

RJC

Very nice, many miles of smiles

SDMF

It is not my case.

E550Shopper

Ok, thanks. What's your take on the feel of the Designo leather vs. regular leather? I'm considering going with the Black Designo leather, even though I kind of hate the white piping, because (a) it is allegedly softer / nicer than ordinary leather, and (b) it's the only way to get the alcantara headliner in the U.S. But, I imagine it's an additional $3-4K, so it better be worth it -- particularly since I think the stitching on the regular leather looks way, way nicer than that white piping they put on the Designo seats. :-)

I see you've got the pano roof with the Alcantara. How does this work: When you close the sunroof entirely (i.e., both shut and cover the glass) does it close with that mesh fabric that comes on a standard car, or is it a solid panel with alcantara fabric?

SDMF

It closes with that mesh fabric that comes on a standard car.

Where did you get the silver AMG door locks? I like them much better than the standard black plastic ones that come on the AMG

SDMF, do you have a heated steering wheel with the four-spoke wood/leather configuration? If so, what's the option code? I couldn't find it on MBUSA so that I may 'tick' it in my build.

E550Shopper

ghaffar: SDMF can comment as well, but it's my understanding that heated wheel is *not* available in combination with wood/leather wheel on the E. If you get designo, you'll get the wood wheel as part of the package price. Y95 should get you the designo-matched wood wheel, and 443 is heated steering wheel. Note that the heated wheel requires a one-time $250 special order fee. "One-time" meaning you can add the one or two additional special order options without having to pay the fee more than once.

SDMF

No, heated steering wheel function is not compatible with the wood leather steering wheel.

SDMF

I order thru http://www.genuinemercedesparts.com.

The part number are as follows:

AMG Door Pin (for Front Doors) 09 A000 766 0228

AMG Door Pin (for Rear Doors) 09 A000 766 0328

ghaffar23

This is what I figured, since the 443 heated steering wheel option may be ordered in an S-Class and CL-Class.

OceanView

Gorgeous!
Never knew they had all those options available for the E class.
