Yes that's right, there is no premium package.

The multicontour seats don't seem dependent on it.

Looks like a good build!
btw have you seen the panoramic roof in person, I also wanted panorama roof at first but when i saw it in person was dissapointed that its not one piece like on the X5.
I also recommend ambient lightening and illuminated door sills, its a 300$ option that makes the interior look much better.
You can also get black headliner as a no cost option since you already have the special order charge.

I ordered my ml without P1 as well, all i really wanted was a rear camera and dealer didnnt want to add it to my build.Rear camera is very easy to add as an aftermarket option later, its unlocked in the engineering menu and you can use any good aftermarket rear camera that has an RCA video cable.

Definitely not. I like the black seats with the headliner being a different color. Like on my current X5.

Resale on a truck without P1 but with other optional equipment is going to be rough.

I think they are charging in 2014 for black headliner. Not 100% on that but I think its a few hundred.

Well...

So that you are aware a ML 4matic without Premium 1 here in the US will flag additional anti-export scrutiny from MB Corp - Asia, EU, Africa etc use different COMAND system than US - no Premium 1 is a big trigger at the moment.

1) Wrapped dash will be tight/tough for early Sept MY14 startup production - very tight

2) Yes - black headliner is SPC option - like the dash - both single $250 SPC charge

3) You will need to choose 19" or 20" wheels - I have attached with 19" chosen

I am not sure what you mean but the command is the same on both P1 and non P1 cars. They both come with NTG4.5, difference is that car without P-1 doesnt have harddrive plugged in the bottom of NTG 4.5.

If you're already paying for special order -- have you looked at the Satin Ash wood? I really like mine with that.
