Fully featured S63s are out!!

Simonson Mercedes in Santa Monica just got in an S63 that doesn't have the $500 credit on the sticker. I got in an played with the NAV system and it does in fact have real-time traffic info, one of the missing features on the first batch. I hope this means my car will have it too when it arrives in three weeks!

Does it still have Sirius? Infiniti requires XM with the real-time traffic feature.

To both questions:

a) I did not use the DVD (didn't have one with me) but I did play with the menu's and there is a menu option for playing a DVD. I imagine the cars without option don't have this menu feature??

b) I'm pretty sure it is still Sirius -- BMW gets the live traffic data over the air from Clear Channel Broadcasting (the largest FM station owner in the country with coverage in all the major markets) rather than via satellite with XM, and I imagine MB does the same

i believe with $0 money down at signing, 3 yr leases ~10-15k miles a year is around $3000-3200/month (which includes the taxes).

not good money factor rates, but that's mb financing's deal
