Black just looks all out class and plain beast (but again it has to be clean and anyone with black knows is a chore) and you guys have some very nice options. I accidentally bought "obsidian black" on my 06 thinking I was getting black. When the back of the delivery truck opened up the sun was shining right on it and the metal flake was just gorgeous. In the sun or bright daytime it looks black metal flake but at night you can't tell it apart from the regular black. White and black is the killer combo. Whenever I see a white S55 (not often) I always check to see if the interior is black. So far I have only seen three.
So far,
Black on Black (I have seen a few black and tan but not too many...)
Obsidian Black on Black
Silver on Black
White on Black
Still hoping we get someone with something really unusual...
2005 S55 Designo - Graphite Green over Graphite Anthracite with Brown Poplar trim. All the bells and whistles other than the split rear seats.
2001 SL500 - Desert Sand over Java with Chestnut trim. SL1 and SL2 option packages. No Pano.
Curious about what color combos other forum members drive. If you have a white S55 with black interior you have a very rare color combo. I haven't seen very many blue ones either like the heavily modified one on here. Hopefully, we get some members to add here. The S55 forum has been really boring. How many S55 owners have parktronics, distronics, keyless go, trunk closer, rear air, cooled and heated rear seats all on the same car?
I have a 03’ S55 mocha espresso edition designo ( Black exterior with Peanut butter interior)
Dynamic seats
parktronic
rear seat package
Does anyone know the rarity on this kind of options ?
'06 MB S55 AMG; '04 Audi Allroad 4.2; '05 BMW M3 Conv.; '92 MB 500E

Very rare. I've only seen 4 Designo of this car, 2 Espresso and 2 Graphite. In each case they came fully loaded with the rear seat options. I actually almost bought an '06 Mocha/Almaretto a few years back but didn't want to risk owning 2 and having to sell one. I was thinking to put my 19" wheels on that one, keep it and sell mine -- silly. Precise production numbers are hard to come by though.

Thank you for your reply and that bit of information . In this case would be and JDfreak2012 have close to the same spec ? Or is sadly brown different from my interior Obviously mine missing distronic and keyless go? I am looking to pick up the CL55 version of this spec with the same color way soon , which seems to be a little less rare. ( I’ve seen 5 for sale )
