Finally got a picture. The Verde Brook color really sparkles in the sun, although it is hard to see in the pictures. Already have 1000 miles on it. Ride is great - I can't compare it to other W222's, but the ride is much better than my W221 with the 19" wheels. I mentioned the aftermarket mats - will post pics of those in another thread.
Very nice looking! I see that you have the 18 inch standard wheels. I also have these. I decided comfort is more important than looks. The looks are just fine with the 18 inch wheels in my opinion.
Looks like driving lessons for MB Manhattan employees is in order (if it wasn't already delivered that way).
LovinMerc welcome to Pebble Beach. It truly is the only time of the year that all these awesome automobiles get together in one place. As some of you may know, I work for one of the larger enclosed transport companies. Sorry I didn't get to work with MB at this year's event . . . handled mostly RR and a Veyron demo. Hanging out at the Polo Field.

The S65 Coupe was not there. They said it was coming in the morning. Unfortunately, I was not able to stick around the next day so I did not get to see it.
Wow nice. Interesting they even molded the stalks on the steering column in tan. I don't recall them ever doing that for tan interiors on previous generations.

Yes, very nice touch. Also, these interiors are porcelain. Wonder what they will actually use with the silk beige.
I've got my camera although I don't know if they allow pictures on the tours.
Strictly no pictures on the premises. Pictures do not capture the emotions anyway, so please just bring us some good news about your car, and have a safe trip.

Very excited today. In Venice flying into Stuttgart to Mercedes Benz tomorrow. Not only am I going to do the AMG and Sindelfingen tours but I have now been able to confirm that I am going to meet with the people that worked on my custom ordered car in the Centre of Excellence. Looking forward to meeting them to say thank you.
My car's production date is still October 8th so it will be born very soon. Working with the folks in Montvale has been a tremendous experience and they have made this very rewarding. Germany has also gone out of their way to get me every single detail I wanted.
Even though my production date isn't for another two weeks, I feel the final part of the journey starts tomorrow.
A special treat is that my wife is actually excited too. How lucky am I!
