JoeMa, I find the Night package goes well with light-coloured bodies as the contrast can be striking. Conversely,the bright trim is a bit lost on the silver painted body.

I'm fine with most of the bright trim pieces on the non-Night version, I just don't care for the painted silver look of the grill crossbar. The blacked-out version looks so much better (to me). Personal taste is subjective so to each his own.

H35 trim name changed
Interior trim H35 is called “designo® natural grain brown ash," but it looks black in the DOG. The German Configurator has “designo® wood ash sealed black open-pore” that looks identical. Looking closely at the high-res photos on that site I think it is actually a very dark brown that is almost black. I think they are the same. Cost in Germany (less VAT) is 700 euros. I like it a lot; very sophisticated.

I didn’t see a production start date. How does the ETA translate to a date? Yours shows Port 70505 so I assume that’s the build completion date, ready for shipping?

Rear Side Airbags
Option #293 Rear Side Airbags (SPC)
That is not listed in the DOG but interesting to see that it was available to order nonetheless, I wonder what else is available that is not in the DOG.
I would be interested in adding this option also and trying to assess their safety for young children (6 &10 currently).

An interesting development on the home front. My wife has agreed to the AMG Line Interior w/Black Nappa leather (never thought she'd go for it). I'll be calling the dealer tomorrow to make sure I can order the black nappa leather seats with the crystal grey headliner. If not, I'll go with the Espresso leather with crystal grey headliner. I love the look of the AMG steering wheel!

I do prefer a light colored headliner. A black headliner would just be too much black for my liking. I’ve never owned a black interior so I need to ease myself into it with this one.
