In northern Italy bigger cars are driven with the viable real estate estate, however the pic does not resemble Milan Italy.

Well, this is my home in Minneapolis (sorry this is not Milan guys . That Milan part and S550 part was in a humor. This is indeed my very own C300, equipped with Premium II, Driver Assistance package, Airmatic, and almost all that was available!

Thanks Hyperion667. Unfortunately it cant be ordered in S-class. You are right, this is the Designo Cardinal Red Metallic .... Its a bright really dark intensive red color, I really really love the car, Mercedes has built it as a piece of art, its just a baby S550, and now I am shopping for the S550 itself to complete the family - a Mercedes RV (love it, pictures in my other 2015 vs 2016 thread), Mercedes C300, and hopefully a Mercedes S550

You can get the S in any Mercedes color as long as you're willing to pay the custom charge
