Looking for a Cool S ...

What do you think of this one? Never seen an Emerald Green W222, and I wonder what P07 "Chauffer Package" is exactly ?

Be interesting to see how they price out the car. Green cars have a notorious drop in resale value over other colors which can make for a great deal if you like it.
This one is actually a special edition car (Emerald Green Edition) which you can identify on the green piping of the seats. Was a $18k option on the MY15. The color itself only became available for MY16.

I take a V12 over a V8 any day for smoothness and torque. I assume the car was somewhere in the $160k range new.
The Chauffeur option was a common option on those model years if you had the rear seat packages. We had that one too. Simply means that the passenger rear seat has the buttons on the rear door to drive the passenger seat completely forward (flipping the headrest) and then extending a foot rest from underneath the front seat so you can stretch and rest your feet on. Rear seats are powered and change positions too. Can save the seat memory as well.
Another package would also have an extended leg rest but this one doesn’t IMO.

Can easily be, I didn’t look what other options the car had. Green is not a color for me and I wouldn’t get it for that reason but colors are a personal choice. Personally also prefer the sport package. The car will be RWD only with MBC which results in a beautiful ride but it you need AWD you need to keep looking.

That will be a future collector car. While novel I'not sure I am sold on the green pinstripe across the dash cover.

Looked at the pics again. The car is indeed loaded. It has the 4 seat exec.package with the leg rest, rear seat tables and Burmester 3D.
On the other hand the car looks quite used for its low mileage. Pretty dirty interior...probably can be restored by a good detailer.

I think that's a very interesting car. As Wolfman says, green is subjective. It looks black until the light hits it. Different car, just showing the color differences.

Nice, great car but that drivers seat looks dirty, can they clean it? Maybe it's just the picture? Love the car but it wouldn't be in my garage. I like plain colors that don't attract attention like silver or grey. More boring, the better.

This place is a joke.

"The dealer has not set a price for this vehicle yet"

Not much truth in TRUEcar eh?
