Forgot to add the specs:
799 Diamond White
274 Chestnut Brown/Black Leather
P01 We all know this
319 Lighting
321 Sport
389 Keyless-Go
993 Lane Tracking
H09 Brown Satin Ash Wood Trim, 104 Rear Deck Spoiler, 137 Comfort Box
287 Split Folding Rear Seats, 401 Heat/Vent Seats, 413 Pano Roof, 432 Active Contour Seat w. Massage, 443 Heated Steering Wheel


What's on yours?

MSRP $67,225 but I got it for roughly $56k retail (includes loyalty and a 12.25% discount from the sales manager). The discount came from some sort of MB program they have so I don't know much on the details. Mind you that I already purchased a Steel Grey with just loyalty and rebate not to mention I've done business with them with my prior two Mercs. MSRP on that Steel Grey was $62,950 and got it for slightly over $55k.
My Steel grey wasn't a "steal" but I do like my second purchase.
As for the wheel, I don't understand what you mean?

qtip, which Park Place are you getting it from? Mine is coming to Dallas. It's also nice to see that I'm not the only lunatic in DFW who orders the heated steering wheel. I think T.H. Carrera was talking about the AMG wheels being the old style and not the new kind because the dealer ordered the wrong option code for it.

Haha amen to that, buddy. My wheels are still the old AMG rims. I spoke with my dealer about it and they said they would see. Hoping they could perhaps swap it from a different E because I'm sure not many people would notice the difference. I swap between FTW and Grapevine and they both seem to have no issues being it's under the same family business (3 from grapevine, one from FTW).

Heated steering wheel is a must for California, and weather even colder in DFW in my memory.

WTF do you guys do so you get a new car every 6 months? People at work think I'm nuts for getting a new car every 3 years...

I have a big family so we just rotate cars between members. Average life time of a new car is about 2 years. So get married grow kids and you will have multiple cars as well.

I guess we have two cars so we get a new one every 1.5-2 years as well. But every 6 months? I doubt my kids will be getting a new car every 3-4 years. They will be getting my hand-me-downs if anything. And even that they will get at most twice then they're on their own.

No magic, I always prefer to drive a car under 10k-12k miles. My first 2014 E350 is already at 9300 miles...

Hey, I'd prefer to do that too. Whether I can afford to do that is a different story...

Your blue will look very similar to my Steel grey, I saw one the other day and man it looks nice! Been alittle over a day and already has 600 miles on my car. I LOVE the interior leather so I'm going to have to depart from MB-tex from now on. Massage and chestnut leather is my new favorite!
POST SOME PICS ONCE YOU GET AHOLD OF IT! ^_^

The interior is very welcoming once you sit inside

I think chestnut and the satin wood is an awesome combo! It was definitely my second choice with Palladium Silver. Pics will go up as soon as I get it! The option sheet doesn't show park-assist or keyless-go but I should have that too. I love keyless on both our cars, wouldn't get one without it.

Slightly off topic, does anyone know how to snap a photo with the daytime headlights being blue? Mine always appears to be white...

It has to do with the white balance of your camera. If it comes out white it means it's working right. ;-)

I got to see my car for the first time tonight just 30 minutes after it rolled off the trailer. I should get her Monday or Tuesday. So far I love what I have seen. Tuesday can't get here soon enough!
