Looks like the car hasn't finished its pre delivery inspection. Maybe they don't put it on until after to keep it from being damaged.

Is this car equipped with ABC? (Active Body Control) . It Seems to have just about every other option.

It looks like it has ABC, as that is code 487. Nice car! Designo finishes are top notch.

The massaging rear seats are a part of the V12 models upgrades(at least in the US).
Not to hijack the OP's thread, but has anybody here in the US actually taken delivery of a Designo Magno finished car?

Here is a link to a designo magno S63 on ebay:

I didn't think I would like the matte finish, but it is actually quite striking.

Unfortunately, Multicontour/Dynamic Rear Seats are not available in the US. Notice how the buttons are missing on the rear armrest in the pictures above.

A Mercedes obviously!
Looks great! Designo is definitely the way to go on the non V12 W221s.
