What is your favorite feature of your W221/S550?

With new people owning w221's or "S550's" there might be some specific things that this 95k+ piece of machinery (at one point in time cost, regardless what you paid now) does that my be your favorite feature or upgrade . Could be something you have done to it that some of us can do that might make us love the car just that much more.


What is your favorite thing about you S-Class Vehicle???


Sound off...

I'm relatively new S500 owner and there are so many things to love. I'm really impressed with Distronic Plus and it's much more useful than I imagined. Nightwision and massaging seats are quite useless but nice show off feature

I found previous owners original receipt when he bought this car from the dealership. 175 000 euros including 38 000 euros of extras. Car prises in Finland are just ridiculous.

The car with TT is worth the money. My selling point was on the hwy.....supersonic brick on glass. I would run staggered if not for the 4matic.

Getting a front spot at the hotel valet stands. Except in Boca, where the S Class is their version of the Honda Accord.

The smooth ride, and the way you get treated at places like valet, car wash, etc.

A 2012 or 2013 twin turbo plus the B&O sound system takes the 221 to another level.

I got trunk problems. Dealer does not know

I love the ride but it is embarrassing to pull up to a motel and use a key to open the trunk. Remote opener does not work on car. They said trunk release, replaced it and nothing. Money down the drain. Any ideas please feel free to advise. 2008 s550.

Can you hear trunk opening pump working or not? Located on the left side in the trunk behind paneling
