Look who’s back

Well time has come to get back into the Amg world. It’s been too long. Here’s the new family wagon. Can’t wait to add some tasteful mods.

Nice spec! So the carbon wheel is not heated? I guess it wouldn’t be. I guess that’s OK if you live in a warm climate. Otherwise, heated wheel is one of those ‘can’t live without options’.

Unfortunately you can't choose both AMG drive unit and Heated steering wheel. One deletes the other. Dunno why and it sucks.

Best way is to get heated wheel and install the sub-dials and do coding.

Left hand side underneath the turn signal lever, there is little knob controls steering wheel position. It can be turn on by twisting it. Circled in red.
