Actually, it is the 2007 S65 you are posting about not a 2006. The 2006 still had the old body style and interior.

ugly steering wheels

beautiful car, but the steering wheel is a terrible joke for that kind of money. it's got the similar shape, esp the two lower spokes, to the chrysler 300...way to go MB for copying the lower price brand for design ideas. unfortunately, other MB models are copying that style steering wheels also.
