E43 in my garage

Picked up late 4/12/17. Car is perfect, rain prevents photo session. Will try to get you the photos and first impressions this weekend.

Very nice indeed! Good shots of the selenite. Now I just need a few weeks to see the selenite magno version when my car arrives . I see you splurged on the radio! How is it? Any chance to compare it with the normal Bumester? That is about the only option I passed up! I just couldn't justify another 4k just for the radio given that I listen mostly to npr and the news!

Answers to questions

Regarding 3D Burmester, I do not listen to a lot of music, ordered 3D because it was available. I had a 2017 E-300 loaner for a month while waiting for the E-43. It had the regular Burmester. I can't tell the difference yet. Only have 40 miles on her.

Why not get the AMG steering wheel? I do not like the feel of microsuede.

First impressions coming.

Think you made the right choice on the steering wheel, it might look good at first but with some mileage it turns glossy and hard.
I have seen several of them ruined.
