2020 S-class DOG

The 2020 model is virtually the same as the 2019 model. The DOG is attached. I just placed my order. I was going to wait until the W223 but the renderings and photos leave me with a bad taste for the new dash, even though it is going to have Level 3 automony. I can wait until 2022 or 2023.

Oh boy, Ok thanks. So many acronyms. I thought he was saying the new car was a bit of a ... dog.

I am in the same boat as you, I have ordered a 2020 S560V4. (actually at the port right now awaiting shipping)
The price of the premium package was $5K in 2019, but now only $3750 as some of the items from the previous premium package are now included.
That savings was offset by an increase in the base price of $3100.
My car will be $1850 more than a 2020
There are huge incentives on the 2019s right now, through MB Fleet sales, USAA, and other organizations that participate.
We fell in love with the Black/Porcelain interior, ordered over Selenite Gray, otherwise we'd get a leftover 2019

Just got a 2019 S63 and I am very, very happy with the car, did Renntech ECU, thinking seriously about turbo upgrade for this daily driver.
Like you, very disappointed with the huge Tesla like TV set in the middle of new S-Class dashboard, no matter how advanced and great that car will be, it disqualifies it for me.
I'm running out of choices for the next car, might run this one for a long time.
Haptic controls taking over design of all new luxury cars (A8, Panamera, upcoming S-Class) are something that I despise to be forced to use, are not practical and difficult to use in real life with the car moving, shaking and not 100% stable.
Different thing to have an iphone in your hand and touching icons on screen and different thing when you want to do it in a moving car (dangerous too, since you take your eyes of the road far longer then with analog switches).
What's left in the near future?
A Flying Spur only?
That's a lot of money for a daily driver......
I'm really frustrated with all these car makers trying to make us "happy" without asking first, making "improvements" and supposed "advances in tech" without really considering the actual practical implementation of all that junk.

Anyone have a DOG for the 2020 S63?

Anyone has any questions I am a rep, I can easily answer them.

I do not believe the OP included it in the original post—must have not included it due to size.

If someone can post the OTHER half that would be great! OR PM me.
