Congrats. Is the build time generally 6 months with MB? My wife just got her G550 and it took 5 months...When I used to order Range Rovers, it would take about 3 months....Congrats and looks like a fantastic build!!

Thanks! Generally speaking that is the timeline…. Rarely is it like 3 months if they have an immediate allocation available

so when I try to add that, it try’s to default to the platinum and black interior… is that a glitch or is that what it’s supposed to be?

According to the order guide two tone dash is available in black/espresso. My guess is Netstar would accept the change.
Are you okay with the bumpers and fenders being black to get the darker trim pieces with the magno paint?

sounds good… I’ve asked my advisor to add the two tone dashboard… help me understand what you mean by your second question?

When you do night package with magno they force you to get black bumpers and fenders so it’s two tone. Some people like it and some don’t.
Other options would be dark chrome which is shiny or carbon fiber exterior package which would give you the magno black bull bar and spare tire ring but without changing fenders or bumper color and keeping them gold. The spare tire cover will be carbon fiber though.

It’s cold in the US right now and I wish I had a heated steering wheel. You might wish to add that unless you’re somewhere tropical! I didn’t order it on my 2024 because it would have removed the AMG dials on the steering wheel. I’ve been told that this is no longer an issue. As others have suggested, the two tone dash as well.

This is an interesting idea! I wanted to order the 2025 with a magno black bull bar, sideboards and exhaust tips, while keeping the fender and wheel wells the original color. As it is now, my 2025 order is in with them in magno black. Thanks for the tip!

Glad to help! I believe heated steering wheel is standard now and co-exists nicely with the AMG buttons.
Most people prefer carbon fiber trim. I've had it on two cars and while it looks great, I don't care for the alcantera on the steering wheel. I go with black ash typically as well and boring leather steering wheel. If they had a leather/carbon fiber option I'd be all over that.

I had the carbon fiber/microfiber steering wheel in my 2023 but I like the leather/microfiber steering wheel in my 2025 better.

So here are the changes I made:
1. Added two tone leather interior
2. Changed night package to dark chrome exterior… this also gives me body color bumpers and wheel arches which definitely has a nicer look. The dark chrome seems to go really well with the matte paints.
3. Changed wheels to the 22” monoblock magno black
4. Microfiber steering wheel.

Are the running boards dark chrome as well? If not, wouldn’t that look odd if it’s just regular chrome?

Running boards with dark chrome will be regular like they have been in 2019-2024. Only night package plus and night package magno I think get the black running boards and exhaust tips.
Others have wrapped the boards which seems to be the most cost effective solution.
