Dash looks awesome, maybe a tad busy

Steering wheel isn't for me, something is really off

This is an AMG only steering wheel, so not an option but the non-AMG steering wheel in the wood/leather combo actually looks better than this (IMO)

I agree, the steering wheel is not an elegant design AT ALL. Mercedes really didn't do the car justice with that steering wheel. It looks like something you might find in a FORD pickup. The rest of the infotainment is cool though. Once my CPO is up in 2021, I will be looking for another S550 or S63. I am hoping the 2019 version doesn't have it.

This steering wheel is not available for the S550 now or in the future, so no worries
