Looks like MB decided to use the cheaper floor handle for MY25

I'd be surprised. Streamliner had a similar issue where the threshold to his trunk was not metal, the dealer replaced it with the proper metal one.

That sucks! My 24. You could order a new floor or you could just get a nice trunk mat. I have considered getting a Lloyd Luxe trunk mat. I have their floormats and they are amazing.

My 24 has the chrome handle...

Great minds think alike lol
I actually have the Lloyd mats in my S.
I also ordered the trunk mat about a week ago and it's scheduled to arrive next Monday.
I guess I'll just pass on the metal handle. It'll be covered with the mat anyways.

I also like the fact that it can hold on to fragile items more securely.
The thing sure is heavy though!

Yeah, as soon as I took delivery, I noticed my floor handle is all cheap matte black plastic.
I was eyeing the chrome handle on Amazon. Again, little things
The mod I really like is a metal license plate bracket : ) like you mentioned, the little things : ) https://mbworld.org/forums/s-class-w...e-bracket.html

Wow those little things does add up, even my family member's 2019 E coupe has the chrome one.

Lloyd trunk mat in.
Quality is as good as the floor mats, although it is somewhat pricey for a piece of carpet.

Looks like the trunk liner contour changed at some point.
When I saw online reviews some S580 had flat side liners, whereas mine has a slight bulge on the left side.
No biggie, though.

I've been using Lloyds for years, I prefer a plastic piece for the trunk to catch spilled milk, or whatever might slop out from groceries. Looks good though, Lloyd's is pricey, especially if you get the Luxe or whatever they call that. I looked around a little bit when I was shopping, and other mats like the Coco's seemed to have similar pricing.

Wow, I didn't realize there were different lines of mat from Lloyd, I just assumed carpet ones are all the same.
Invoice says I got the basic Ultimat...
Maybe I'll try the 'Luxe' mat next time when I need a replacement.

I agree with the plastic trunk mat.
For some reason, the $50 some dollar option from Amazon was 'unavailable' with no ETA.
Otherwise, I would've gotten that one.

I was going by memory, that being the Luxe were the good ones. They've got loop pile, velour, regular ol carpet that's less nice than Luxe, or whatever the name.

Funny that all S class rubber mats are ‘unavailable’ from Amazon.
