Silk Beige/Satin Red Pearl here are some pics.

A number of you have asked for pictures of this interior. Now I understand why you don't see it much. Here is what it says on the MBUSA site when you select this color. I thought you had to have AMG....not true...you have to have all manner of rear seat options.

Additional Equipment Required. You may select one of the following: Power outboard rear seats with memory, Warmth and Comfort Package. Power outboard rear seats with memory - $1,515, will be your default selection.
To select this item, you will need to add all of the following to your build: Exclusive trim, Rear Seat Entertainment system, Executive Rear Seat Package, Rear Seat Package.

Anyway, it is beautiful. Here are some pics. I went down to me dealer to pick up some parts I ordered and promised pictures. I'm new to this so bear with me. I want to put the pics in the post....I'll do the best I can.

Why do you think they make you order all those rear seat options to get this color? That is truly strange. So, a customer who's willing to shell out the money for this designo leather and does not want executive rear seats (because it looks like you have to order both) get told "no sorry tough &%#&! Weird.

What region are you in? In the US, you only need to add power outboard seats $1515 and exclusive trim $950

Maybe I'm missing something......I went to the MBUSA website and tried to build a car with this color selection. Here is the message that popped up while I was trying to build car.

We're sorry, if you are selecting designo Silk Beige/Satin Red Pearl Exclusive semi-aniline leather you will need to manually add Executive Rear Seat Package to your build.

Try it for yourself and see what happens.

Anyway....an $8600.00 option. Thats pricey.

Weird, I'm doing the same at the MBUSA site, I still only get it requiring power rear seats and extra wood

How did you paste those screen shots in your post? Not the best computer guy here.

Could it be exterior color choice? Don't see what that would have to do with anything, but I chose the Diamond White.

For the build, I was building off a S63 AMG. I think you were building off a S550, which requires more options.

Well, thats got to be it. I was building an S550 not an AMG car. So, the question remains, why make you order all thost rear seat options to get this interior.

Try to build a regular S550 with that color and see what happens when you click on that color. You get the above message....I did anyway.

On my next S550 4matic order, I am considering the Silk Beige/Satin Red or a complete custom interior like Lovin Mercedes had completed. I have the Silk Beige/Espresso in my '14 S550 4matic.

Good point. I think they believe it is not possible to sew that leather on the damn seat. Or they are trying to make money IDK

It appears like this is the interior that will be the same or similar to the Maybach interior. So MB probably figures they will offer this optional interior on the S550 but you must get all the rear seat options. It is how they will reach their goal of higher profit margins. They have publicly stated higher margins as a goal.

It on the armrest in the middle of the two rear seats. I did not see it either until it was pointed out.

Higher margins? How about a Panorama Roof DELETE option at $5K? Or an optional compact spare for $1K? Full size spare at $2K? I'm ready, sign me up!
