Speaking of wheel options:



For the W222, it would be nice to have an option like the pictured (SL) wheels. But beyond that, some other options would be great, maybe with the highlight stripe matching body color. For instance, gloss black wheels with a white stripe, for a white car. Or normal silver alloy color but with a black stripe, maybe closer to the hub, for a black car.

A very similar 19" wheel (albeit in a machined silver finish, not black/red) is available as a no-cost option on the S63.

A lot of popular movies and shows like to show the w222 now. I wonder if MB pays for this?

What do you do to see the time then in the coupe? Is it shown on the nav screen?

He has never reviewed W222. It was just a stand in vehicle. Season 21, episode 4. He did review the W221 extensively though.

1998 E320 \sedan
I purchased a 1998 E320 but the sunroof is shot and I had to have it sealed. Is it worth trying to buy a replacement sunroof or better to sell the car and buy one that works? I only paid 2k with 132,000 miles and its in really good shape.

Flame thrower. Really anything that encourages people to move out of the passing lane.
