Which Designo model did you sit in? I asked my dealer, and he said that as of right now they have not heard any word on the designo S Classes. The white one in the brochure is gorgeous.

Correct. It was a LE. It was actually the first time I sat in the W221. If it wasn't for a lack of time, I would have taken the salesman up on his repeated offers for a test drive.

what kind of pics do you want?

i am having lunch with him tomorrow . if he brings it i will take pics of what you would like to see. he has a few different cars and he doesnt always drive the new 550. he told me there is something going on at the mbz center in irvine on sunday he is attending.

i made the ladera ranch comment because several people on this board know him and met him at the big mbz meet in irvine. he was the guy with the b55 slk and the brabus ml500.

a few...
there might be other designo options out there but ours is
designo Graphite exterior
with a nice very light tan interior (maybe porcelain) that is only on the armrests, glovebox and middle consoles and of course the seats
with a dull, walnut color wood.

Looks very classy and I really like it since the carpets are black and it really sets off the interior/exterior/wood combination.
