For some reason I believe the grills with the large Mercedes emblems are extremely tacky.

Also I don't like the pre 2004 or 05 S class due to their front seats. From the profile and rear angle view they look horrible. The look like a cake flowing out of the pan after it has been baked. Lol.

Has anyone noticed this?

Oh ok yeah sorry I thought they changed the seats in 04. Your interior looks clean. Also are those individual adjustable rear seats?

I will try to post some pictures of mine.

Here are some pictures of my baby. I'm extremely obsessed about having car clean. Especially the interior. The only dirt you can find is probably on the front floor mats. Nothing you can do about that.

Well it's not a rocket sience, but you have to follow certain things.

My interior is charcoal color, but even that would show dirt if you are not careful. As far as dust goes, I always dust it with swiffer duster. After few months or so I wipe down things with DP total interior cleaner. I never get anything really dirty, because I drive a car. I don't shave, eat, drink etc. in it. And I'm alone. Anyway, for hard to reach areas I use sticky pads (Lint Remover Roll) to collect dirt and dust. You can buy those anywhere. Much easier and effective than vacuum.

When it comes to the seats... well you need to make sure your clothes are clean and eliminate on places where in public you sit down. Chairs, benches etc. are very dirty out there. That eventually trasferes on to your sits. I know this may sound crazy, but I'm very OSD.

If your sits are dirty now, use Lexol cleaner to clean them. Grooves and all other areas. Wipe down with warm damped cloth and let it dry. Than use Lexol conditioner to condition the leather. Buff with dry cloth. Remember, always use microfiber cloths.

They were only available in Europe on the earlier W220s I believe, they were an option above the standard wheels that you see here:



Above the ones in the post it was the AMG monoblocks:



IMO, the worst were the wheels that came as standard on S280s in Europe, you can only just see them in this picture but wow they were terrible, like they came off a van! I remember seeing them in the W220 brochure and laughing!

Nice! I didn't realise they were also available in the US. I only ever saw them on earlier W220s and in Europe. Never seen them stateside before.
