Best Feature in your S550
I am curious to know what everyone's best feature or function is in thier S550s.

Mine is the
1. Massaging seats. (Love it especially on the way to and from the Gym. Ahhhhhhh)

2. The Panoramic roof. When the sun is fully out, it feels like i'm in a convertible.

Best Feature
After three and half years I would have to say that the Distronic Plus / Blind Spot Assist / Parking Assistance combo is the best feature. I have everything else - RSP, Dynamic Seats, Pano Roof, Premium Leather, keyless go, etc. These are all very nice to have but none of them are as useful or valuable as the Distronic Combo.
