Waiting for delivery of S550 coupe Edition 1

Hi all, not sure whether to post this here on the S63 C217 forum. Like many of you, I've had the pleasure of driving some awesome machines. Not crazy awesome though. I recently traded my 13 Panamera Turbo for a Range Rober Sport Supercharged. Something at the time impressed me. Many things. After a few days I realized I made a mistake, for ME (it's hardly a bad vehicle). Just traded that in for a slightly used 2015 S550 coupe, Edition 1. Currently waiting transport and should have by mid next week. I am super excited. Test drove a non edition 1, but similar options except for high end Burmester 3d. I thought it drive very nice, handles nice for the luxury segment it falls in and the technology is off the charts. I am a music guy so can't wait to hear this 3d system. I was not at all impressed with the base Burmester. I realize it's not worth the $6400 but if it's a significant upgrade, I'm happy. I believe I got a pretty decent deal but who knows. 2200 miles, $134,900 and got back most of my money on the Rover. anything I should be aware of, cautioned about or is it everything it's cracked up to be? Reviews are phenomenal.

That's the way to go. There were 2 of them in Dallas available recently but they were not budging off the new price, so no way I would do that. But for the price you got it's a fair deal and a beautiful car. I LOVE the Bengal Red interior.

Thanks! If all goes a planned at this point, car should be picked up from selling dealer tomorrow late morning and if I'm lucky, will be delivered to my dealer late in the afternoon in time for delivery tomorrow night. I'm like a kid who can't sleep for what tomorrow brings!

The Magnetite Black is a tough color to photograph. Although I haven't seen this color in person I've got to imagine if MB put it on their edition 1, along with the Bengal red, it's got to be a pretty snazzy combo. Looks decent in pics, probably better in person.
