With the High End Burmester subwoofer taking up space on the left side, and the reclining rear seats taking up more space (thankfully no refrigerator option), I've had to get very specific on exactly what bags my family can bring on road trips
And if I don't load them in exactly the same manner (position, direction, orientation, etc.), the trunk will auto-reverse back open. I've saved this photo to my phone favorites, so I can recreate success when packing.
No other complaints, except the lack of storage already mentioned. I know the 4-Zone Climate makes the center console shallow, and the Burmester 3D makes the door pockets shallow, and the Air Fragrance makes the glove box shallow... but come on
I'm not nearly as selective because I put my family and all their crap in this lol:

The most I ever travel in the S560 with is myself or maybe me and my wife.
I always rent the Pacifica when am on business travel as I arrive my destination, especially when family is joining me. The PHEV trim drives smooth, maybe under-powered coming from mostly high hp personal or big engines cars at home, but still ideal for cruising on highways and in-town with family with plenty of space.
What tire shine do you use? Your tires always have the perfect shine including your W222 photos that I've seen elsewhere... not too shiny but still shiny enough...
Magic Vision wiper blades do a terrible job cleaning windshield, the water just doesn't sit on windshield long enough before the wipe, therefore bugs smeared and worsen. You can eventually clean it off, but having used up a lot of fluid. It is nice that it doesn't splash water though.
Dual Zone climate "sync" setting keeps changing to un-sync for whatever reason. I'm not sure why, it's sync'd most of the time but sometimes it randomly gets un-sync'd and I'd have to go back into the menus to change it back.
The automatic control wants to wipe to fast and with too little water on the front screen::
a) I never want the wipers to swing more than once every 1.5 seconds
b) I want the windscreen to be more than 40% covered in droplets before the wipe
c) I would rather drive with water on a clear windscreen than to wipe and have the screen cluttered up with bug guts.
If there were a control that just divided every thing the control units wants to do by a factor of 2 I would be a lot happier.

And also noticing the condition of the tarmac, I want to know how much fun @SW20S had doing donuts, power slides and/or J-turns, just before he took the Pacifica photo?!?

I had two gas ones and this PHEV, the PHEV is a way more enjoyable vehicle. The lower center of gravity and the weight make it ride and habdle much better, and the 9 speed in the gas car is terrible, the CVT is much better.
I use Meguiars Hyper Dressing. I looked long and hard for it but its the best I found. You can buy it in bulk and dillute it, or just buy it already diluted which is what I do:

Haha, thats a local high school parking lot. Many donuts have been done there!
Whistling sunroof at 125mph. Bluetooth audio issues when my wife is in the car with her iPhone. Mine just hangs when connecting then. I can echo the small trunk. Not too much currently. I do think the car could be quieter on the inside.
Whistling sunroof can be solved. Mine is quiet to over 180mph.
What engine/trim combination is your car? My S65 makes fun noise when prodded but is wonderfully quiet when not being a savage. The S600 and Maybach cars are tombs on wheels.
i was going 120 yesterday and i had no wind noise. you mate need to adjust your panoramic roof like i had to about a month ago. since then no noise of any kind.
