Still loving my S550

I am coming up on one year ownership of my 2015 S550. I took a look at the new BMW 750, thinking I might trade for one. Nice car for sure, but the exterior styling left me less than enthralled. I have owned many BMWs, but am about to turn in my X and will be without a BMW for the first times in many years. I decided to get a 2016 GLE 63S AMG for my DD. Great compliment to my S550 which I still enjoy a lot. I will probably get another S550 next Christmas. The only thing I wish I had on my current S is the full Nappa leather.

Also coming up on a year with my S. Couldn't be happier. Only issue has been sidewall bubbles on my twenty inch tires. Replaced one three weeks ago and the same tire has a small bubble on the sidewall. Going in for first service next week and will replace the tire...again. I looked at the GLE as a replacement for my old C Class but just can't warm up to the styling. I'm sure it is a great performer, especially the 63S, but the tall back end just doesn't do it for me. Good luck with your new purchase.

The interior on my GLE is stunning. Nappa leather everywhere, and alcantara head liner. And the exhaust note......

I have had my 2015 for over a year now. I am very pleased with it. I still don't know how to use all the features (self-park), but I enjoy it every day.

The only thing that jumps to mind that I do not like is having some of the seat controls (lumbar, shoulders, etc.) controlled by the MMI.
