Thanks for the info.

Can you post the guide in its entirety?

I don't like the new wheels. Don't look as nice as the previous ones.

The standard wheels are ok, the same style is on the GLEs... saw them in person and didn't love them. The optional on the GL350/450 look great IMO!

Damn no 550 multi spoke option like Europe is getting.

No black designo, Amg line or quilted, either

All and all, many nice improvements/refinements for a mid-cycle refresh. But I also would have went with the 21" multi spoke wheel or the new 22" AMG wheels (on a 550).

Looks like no, in the name of model differentiation

I agree, if the 350 and 450 could be configured to look like the 550, why buy a 550? That being said, MB does do it in other markets (Canada, UK, etc.)
