I have not experienced any of the problems you are having, but I have the S580 AMG version without the rear entertainment features. Blue tooth connectivity works fine as does wireless Apple Car Play. The MBUX driver profile works very well, but the dealer helped set that function up. There are a lot of tech settings and it is easy to turn some off by accident. My wife reported that suddenly the outside mirrors were not folding when she locked the car. I found the feature in settings and turned it back on…back to working properly, but at a loss for how it got switched off. I’m hoping that many of the problems you are experiencing will be resolve with a bit of fine tuning of the multitude of settings. Now, go out and enjoy driving your new car!

To add, you can get a wood/leather steering wheel, it just depends on the wood trim you choose.

I read your post and just snickered. Everything works fine but there are things in this car that move or change without me doing them? Example: I get out of the car, the next day the rear sunshades are up, I didn't raise them and no one else was in the car. Sunroof shade opened, just got in the car and the active seat bolsters stopped working, I did not change or shut them off? The dealer told me that Mercedes does over the air updates on things that may need correcting without notice, just wondering if those gremlins at Mercedes are doing some of these things unknowingly?

Finally got my order in. This is a big deal for me as my 2020 Maybach S560 recently got stolen from me 2 months ago. So this is the perfect replacement for me!
I choose to get the AMG Line (Sport) package instead of the Executive package since I like the sporter, more aggressive look. I live near New York so I do not want to look like a Limo driver.. LOL
Since I choose to get the AMG Package, the rear steering that is offered in the new W223 S-classes is only 4.5 Degree turning angle instead of the 10 Degrees the Executive Series offers. I guess cause of the fender wells on the AMG package they weren't able to get 10 Degrees..? Idk makes no sense to me. Besides, that being my only problem; I added every option my eyes could see. So this is a fully loaded S580 4matic with AMG package
As you can see, I spec'd mine with Designo white with Carmine Red/Black Exclusive Nappa Leather! Reminds me of the 300SL Red leather. It's awesome to see Mercedes offering Red leather now for the S-class models.
However, at the moment there is not a lot of options to choose from regarding exterior colors. I'm not sure why my build sheet says $1,134,406, LOL it ended up being $162,000. The most expensive S580 ordered yet, according to my Mercedes Dealerships near me. Also, the Burmester is now 4D sound and of course I added all the 3D Technology Packages along with Rear Tv's and 21" inch Wheels. Disregard the 20" wheels in the build slot. I should be expecting my S580 in March or April 2021. Only a couple of months left!
