No. The standard ML designo interior is much more subdued.

I think I ended up ordering options for a total of close to 60.000 $ , with a total of about 240.000 $ .
Does not make sense not to go for all options when the starting price for a ML350 Bluetec is 165.000 $ (in Norway).
Is that in US dollars?

Black designo leather for ML63


Porcelain designo leather for ML63


Marron designo leather for ML63


I'm not sure if MBUSA cars will be equipped like this; designo leather may be optional. It will be standard for Canada. Note the Dinamica headliner and nappa leather dash.

Anyway the cost of the car is the depreciation in value, not the price. Loaded ML´s holds their value very good. I expect a value loss of 30% for 3 years

I really like the the natural grain ash trim. It is one of the options on the Canadian 2012 ML. Has anyone seen it in person or has real life photos?

Thanks

The open pore brown ash trim is available on the Canadian ML.

I should also say it is good to see someone else from Halifax on these forums!

Any idea, when/if all all, this may be available? Hell, I'd order it from another country and pay for it.

Finally took my wife to see the ML on Sunday; she really like the interior. Except for the plastic cup holder cover and I agreed. It felt out of place to us, in an otherwise well appointed interior.

Thanks

No Idea. I would imagine once the ML63 starts shipping to dealers then the parts department should be able to order parts. I'll be ordering a cover in Ash as soon as I can. I'll report here when I do.

Good point with the ML63 coming out. The problem I'm seeing is I don't know if the US ML63 is coming with the wood cover as it may be only the designo edition found in other countries.

If it becomes available, great. I think it would be a small but nice upgrade - as I think it should have been there in the first place.

The wood roller door will be standard on MY13 with grain to match the dash trim, obviously.

Thanks, YYZ. As always you provide great information

Just to clarify though, it will be standard on all ML's or just the ML63?

Thanks again.

My understanding is that it will be on all 2013 MLs, except when equipped with aluminum trim. In that case, which would retain the black rubberized roller door.

Good to know! I can only imagine the price on a Designo cover vs just the regular wood cover for the 13's

That's good to know. Thank you. Wonder why they would add something like this a year and a half later after launch as opposed to being on the model in the first place.

Better late than never, I suppose.

For Canada, MY12 ML63 will have designo leather standard (not quilted) along with the Dinamica (alcantara) headliner. Optional on 550. MY13 will bring full designo availability (all engines).

Here's a couple shots of designo Black and designo Porcelain (my fav!)



The designo Porcelain is gorgeous!
