For US cars, sadly, we're stuck with Verizon Wireless' crappy signal and the MB apps haven't gotten any better. You just get to access them faster, if you can get a signal. Everywhere else in the world, the car can use your phone's internet connection.

4G LTE, confirmed. They're taking the radio/infotainment system straight out of the E-Class, which has had 4G LTE for 2 years now.

For some reason, MBUSA thinks we actually want mBrace and all of the kludgy apps.
I forget which model of MB it was, but I remember reading someone's post where they did Euro delivery and the VPC didn't update the radio software and their car still had all of the Euro features. At some point later, the dealer did update it and mBrace overwrote all of the fun Euro features.

4G LTE, confirmed. They're taking the radio/infotainment system straight out of the E-Class, which has had 4G LTE for 2 years now. This is also why there's no CD/DVD player in the new S, as the new E was designed without it.

Hideous and overpriced? Really? Their new interior is stunning especially with the available options and lack of going full tv screen like everyone else did. I do not like the BMW big grille situation but lets be serious the S class is old and dated. They destroyed the Mulsanne with that chrome grille and I guess its trickle down. Look at the 7 and the Bentley will look better.
From what I have read look for the big Benz to have a similar grille as the Asian market is what is demanding them.
I would never buy a car in these interim refreshed years unless you have to.

You are in a a very tiny minority with these opinions above, a tiny minority for a reason since it is wrong in every regard.
