Nice color!

Open PORE is amazing. I don't think its offered here in the states? We americans would grease it up with the McD's frenchfry grease. We need materials that can be windex'ed =)

Actually, the wood is available Stateside - I have it on order. It is a special order option, which, unless you push your dealer, you likely won't ever know about. Same with headliner color, stitching, 3 zone climate, etc. There are lots of options available that are not viewable on line or in the brochure.

Or, it could be that because I am a Canadian lving in the US, I can get the open pore and they aren't worried about me and my greasy fingers!

Congrats on the new ride. Mine arrived (Ontario) early on April 5th. We ordered sometime in Feb which Pano was taken off the premium pkg already. It sucks but the ride and everything makes you forget minor things like that.

Cool open pore ash

I love that open pore ash look.
I'll have to look closely at Greg's 2013 build post and I hope it's still available on 2013s.

Congrats!
The open pore with black leather looks real nice. Please do post more pictures of your interior. I have ordered the same options as you and your post is the first time I have been able to see what it looks like. Sadly I still have 7 or 8 weeks to wait - my build is late April, with delivery in May.

Unless it's changed, I don't think H09 is available with the P95 sport interior in the US - damn shame.

Agreed. I just don't like the Aluminum look (have it in my current C), but really would like the P95. So, I think it will stick with H09.

729 Anthracite Poplar is available with P95 as another option.

This is a C Class, but you get the idea:

I'm checking to see if you can get it with the sports interior in the US.

Edit: Confirmed: H09 Brown Satin Ash is orderable with P95 Sport Interior. I've changed my order.

thanks everyone for the compliments :-)

I'll post some new pics tomorrow since it's supposed to be sunny out. I'll also post some night pics with just the running lights on. The amber is really growing on me. I also forgot to mention on my original post that I added Ventilated seats to my ML as well. I first thought it might just be a waste of money, but they really do work well!

Are you saying that you have the Sport Package with Ventilated Seats? This is something I really want, but was told is not possible. Are they Sports seats that are perforated?

He has the Canadian Sport Package, which is AIRMATIC with ADS and 20" AMG wheels, not the interior sport package.
