Beautiful car and interior. Is that the macchiato beige/magma grey interior or the grey Napa? It looks lighter than some of the grey interiors pictured in the black S580 cars. The AMG styling really enhances the sporty look of the car. Congratulations on your new S Class!

Thank you. The interior is silver grey / black exclusive nappa leather. I was searching for an amg line with 20’” wheels, a light color exterior and black interior. I came across this one and it had the massaging seats and the active ambient lighting so I jumped on it.

Your car is beautiful! Enjoy it in good health!
Quick question: do you feel that the 2 screens look like they are a design afterthought? I looked in the window of one parked outside my building and the first thing that came to mind was that both the screens were not integrated very well. The previous S -Class screen (s) are much more integrated into the dash-design of the interior.
Please give me your opinion, as you are actually sitting in the vehicle-driving it and not just looking in the window.
Thank you!

On a side note, The massaging seats are incredible. The massage goes down your back onto your seat bottom, all the way to the back of your thighs.
I was a BMW driver for the past 11 years and was looking for a change.

Scroll down on the Message menu there are more selections without heat. Try the one called waves its goes down the seat. I have yet to try the energizing comfort massage seat but I will.

In the massage menu you can scroll down for more massage settings. The settings with heat seem to be at the top. Try the setting called waves, its awesome. I have yet to try the energizing comfort massage but will on my way home today.

Even with Seat Ventilation ON there is heat!! WTH?!
The only additional setting is for “Intensive” on/off (unless Intensive turns off heat which doesn’t seem so). See pic

I just want to make sure you see all these other massage settings. Please excuse my smudged screen. Once I saw this photo I had to go out to the car and get rid of the finger prints / smudge marks. I feel much better now!

I was referring to the massage types not settings, sorry for the confusion. I haven't noticed heat coming from the other massage types but I have only had the car for a few days. I have not found any other heat settings.

So far no rattles or squeaks. The car seems to be top notch just like the W222. It just has such a solid feel to it. I was using my fathers 2019 s560 for a month while I was looking for a car. I wasn’t even thinking s class until I borrowed his. I truly love this car.

I would ceramic coat your new car in a heartbeat. I ceramic coated my W201 and now I won't use anything else. Ceramic coating is so much better than wax. The difference is stoning and it will last longer too. It's well worth the higher price. Congrats on your new ride and I wish you many happy miles with it. I saw a new W223 on the road the other day and it had a very nice and commanding road presence as an S class is supposed to have.
