German Configurator
The "Konfigurator" on the German website is really great. You can make all your color, wheel, upholstery & trim selections and get multiple views including 360-degree spin view. Almost everything is an extra there and it adds up quickly. I expect the US one to be up soon.

Thanks Greg for the heads-up about the German configuration tool. First time through I selected these options:
- designo Diamond White (this would be our forth MB in this color, old habits)
- 20” AMG 5-Spoke Wheels w/ Black Accents
- White/ Black Nappa Leather
- AMG Sport Steering Wheel

We had ordered the E450 I just got and a C300 Cabriolet. When I was trying to decide between the GLE 350 and E class, he drove the E and fell in love, so he decided he wanted the E sedan over the C300 Cab and that was that. He got what he wanted and I wound up with the E400 at the same time. We've had coupes before and just find them limiting in terms of flexibility, so we wound up with two E sedans instead.

I believe The Magmagrey is the color of the dash and door panels. The pictures you posted are different than the espresso brown that I posted. I got the names of the seating from the German sight.

It could be wrong on the German site and in the US DOG but that is the name of the leather seating color I posted above. Here it is from the US DOG, this looks completely different from the pic you posted above which looks like cloth seating.

Maybe the pic is you found is the problem and that combo will not be offered in the US. The chart below (from the DOG) does not indicate two-tone seats for either code.

Either way, I just wanted to share what the brown seating option looked like for others. Looks good with the natural walnut wood.

And the fact that the photo identification on the Daimler Media website clearly calls the one I posted that means one of the sources is wrong. I'm visiting my dealer tomorrow and will see if they can get clarific

I think that the AMG 53 also makes a case for resale? Spending in the 80’s 450 vs 90’s for the AMG seems to make more sense to me, ha ha. The combo gas electric is also intriguing. I will probably wait if it’s only a few months. What’s a few months when you will own the car for several years.

To my eyes that two tone seat is ugly with the grey. I like the solid brown one better. Just got home from a 650 mile trip and this thread is lots more interesting than the election coverage.

If it turns out they're two-tone leather (as shown in the pic Greg found above), I wouldn't select that combo. I agree with Ron, ugly. I hope they're solid Express Brown. Greg will find out more at his dealer tomorrow.

Maybe my tastes are not the norm? I am a architect so do have some design background. I’ve always liked the gray/brown combo. Would really like Saddle Tan!
