I have to admit the AMG version from the front is looking badass! I just can't get over the interior though... It's like they took steps backward, Ergonomically the arm rests and the window controls on the doors it's AWEFUL!

I agree. The interior makes me want to gag. Maybe it'll at least look a little nicer in AMG nappa with black birdseye maple... even if I do have to use i-COMAND. On the bright side, the night vision option does look cool, and the feature content seems to be a major step up.

I guess the AMG version is the one to get, but the inside still sucks.

WTF, the back up camera shows up on the speedo monitor? Why not do away with the iDrive monitor all together and just have a full monitor instrument cluster, like the new Airbus ****pits! Now that would look cool. It'll only be a matter of time till someone hacks it to show DVDs!

erm, aren't window controls on the doors in the current S as well? based on what do you think the ergonomics will be aweful??

the night vision screen looks friggin cool to me! also there appears to be two different versions of the rear seats: one with a big centre console, sitting 2 people, and another with the ability to seat 3.
