Beautiful car!!! I do have a bit of a confused question - why not add another 15k and get an S600? The S600 would have every option Mercedes makes plus it would have that great engine...

Either way, congrats on the car - the designio color/interior is gorgeous!

that's actually the tweeter for the B&O sound system, not an ashtray

The sound is better than I expected, very clear highs, and tight lows. It really puts the H/K system in my 09 to shame ... Kind of upset I could not order the illuminated door sills for this car, though.

The car handles better than the 09, probably because of the 20 inch wheels, but with all the potholes here in the northeast, I'm afraid of hitting something bad.

The hemi orange is indeed a challenger. The car is here with me in NY, not in Taiwan, and that's part of our detail shop/showroom.

Actually, no. MY2010+ has traditional chinese as a standard language now. Before 2010, you could only have simplified chinese. The only thing missing is the chinese speech, unless there is something in the menu that I haven't found yet.

I didn't realize splitview had to be activated by the dealer. I asked my dealer to ship me the car with all the wrapping on it and not perform a PDI. Now I have to drive to a local MB dealer and ask them to activate it ....

Sweet! I would definitely freak out about the interior though - especially since I have a 1-year-old.
Nice photography by the way.

Lol, I was thinking the exact same thing.

BEAUTIFUL S-Class, wow. Perfect combo, I couldn't think of a better equipped W221. That is a STEEP price though, wow!

Now thats a SUPER HOT S-CLASS! Love the interior white/black color contrast. Makes me really think hard about ordering my next S-Class in white instead of black. Enjoy!
