I wanted to introduce myself. I just bought an andorit grey 2009 S550 with brown leather interior with 85k miles
I was looking for this color combo forever (usually they seem to have grey or black interior).
And I got lucky as the previous owner pretty much ordered every extra I wanted.
Highlights are: Nightvision, panorama roof, heated/cooled front/rear seats, Distronic plus, rear seat package
With the S550, my other car, a 2009 Carrera 4S will probably more and more just become my dedicated track car.
I think I finally completed understanding all the options in the COMMAND menu and already got a lot of good pointers from this forum for questions that I had.
My first projects are: install radar detector (find switched fuse inside the passenger compartment) and swap the taillights for post-facelift taillights (already ordered)
My next science project is to figure out how I can do better than 15 mpg ;-)
Cheers
Chris

Congrats on the new car, it sure is beautiful. My 2007 S550 is Andorite grey and I love it. The color is beautiful and it doesn’t show dirt very easily. Good thing you have the rear seat package and pano roof, I really wish I would’ve gotten them. The 09s have a slight facelift over the previous years if I believe. They have different window switches (thank god, I press the wrong ones all the time in mine) and a few other bits and pieces. The 09’s are also apparently almost devoid of the enfamous M273 idler gear, so that burden is removed!
