12.3 Digital Dash vs Standard?
(Newbie here) I think the widescreen 12.3 Digital dash is standard on the new 2019 E53/63 AMG. Anyone know this to the contrary?
And functionally, what are the big differences between the 12.3 Digital vs Standard dash. I can see they appear different (pics below from non AMG), the standard a bit dated and the digital more modern, but I assume the content and ability to change views is what distinguishes the Digital from the standard, correct? Thanks in advance. https://cimg1.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...76ecddb956.png https://cimg4.ibsrv.net/gimg/www.mbw...e8b6229add.png |
Yeah the full display dash has re-configurable gauges, and looks just like the center screen when off, pretty neat. Like the 222 has has for a couple years now.

Trust me, you want to have it!!! I’ve driven a loner with the analog dash and it’s not just that simple of a difference. The analog dash has lower quality graphics not just on the analog side but the center screen as well. It’s like night and day if you see it in person. The full digital dash is high definition 4K quality graphics and you can definitely do more with it. Makes your car look like a spaceship. Here are pics of mine |
on the dual dash - there is no frame and makes the screens look even bigger as it looks like it extends to the end. There is also a few more options that you only get on the dual dash, like the G force meter, getting the actual navi map on the dash, obviously you get to switch to 3 different dashboards, and a few more visuals for sure, but i cant recall all of them now. If possible - i would definitely get the dual dash. Just makes it another reason to appreciate your car more. plus its what you look at the most during the driving and during the length of ownership.

Here's my opinion (and you know what they say about opinions).
Digital is much nicer. No offense. Apparently Meecedes can not produce enough. An E400 should have one as standard. |
i have the digital. In Australia the analogue is not offered. But the configuration isn't as wide as you would think. In progressive you have configuration of the ride side (drivers screen) of 4 options: navigation (wouldn't use it - as i have another screen that shows it), eco display (who cares), consumption (what i keep) and something else irrelevant.
The left side acts like the main screen where you can change between radio (where i keep it), phone (but can't scroll too many address contacts). |
I keep the Distronic display in the left position, an option that isn't available with the analog dash. The other advantage is that one can quickly change views using the left steering wheel controls.

With your quote in mind, I think you are rationalizing. Analog is nice...for analog.

I use the "progressive" display: it's nice to have the digital speed readout in the center.

I like the dual digital cluster too. But when the dealer gave me such a great deal on a P3 w/out the digital cluster I made my peace with it. Apparently there are many that have refused to make peace with not having them though so it worked out for me. I’m the car guy in my group of friends so I am the only one who knows that I’m missing with the digital cluster. When I get the burl walnut center console cover I will be set. �� |

Have I missed your posts of the pics of your new E400? |

I definitely like the dual screen, but it seems as if most cars have that option have the the C Class Sport rims or some other corny looking rims that come on the E besides the 19' AMG wheels.
