Tilda

Been searching 4-5 weeks for an S550 RWD sedan in Diamond White with a light colored interior. Locked in on a nicely optioned MY15 a few days ago with 22,382 one owner miles and a bit of MB factory warranty remaining. "Tilda" was picked up by transport today and headed west to Tucson.. Stay tuned T

Just a former Tucson resident reaching out to say how much I like the car. When I first saw the ash wood, I wasn't sure about it, but it's grown on me since. Don't know if you've used the local dealership yet or not, but they seem to be a bit pricey even by dealership standards. I'm sure the lack of competition has a lot to do with that. I found that calling MB of Chandler (next closest one) and comparing prices, it was worth it to make the trip to Phoenix for the day. I live in Maricopa now and the Chandler dealership is my go-to place for service.

I have the same interior colors in my 2017 S550. FYI, WeatherTech sells rubber winter mats that are nearly an exact match to the dashboard color in our cars.

HUD is nice but I would certainly not miss it if did not have it. I am 6'7" and love the room in these cars. What did you give for it?
