The AMG chapter begins



Just picked this up Friday. 2015 MB Corp demo, never titled. 8,300 miles.

Anthracite Blue
Porcelain Interior, extended leather with the carbon fiber package. Great contrast. Never would have thought to order this interior, but it really looks good.
Burmester 3D-->Freaking Awesome!
Drives assistance package- by the end of day one I had this fully turned on. Easy to get distracted in this car.
luxury back seats, night vision, etc..- basically came with all the dumb **** I wouldn't have ordered. No ceramics though.


$173K MSRP, paid $123K

Great car. That is the interior I chose when I built my moms 2016 S63. She loves it, heck we all do. She has around 3,000 miles so far. We took delivery the end of September.

So far so good. However we do not have a lot of miles on it. I am the one who fills it with gas and cleans it/details it. I take it in for service when its due. My parents are in there lower 80's. I take my dad for spirited driving on the weekends in it. We open it up a bit. Well a lot. My dad is handicapped. We almost got into a race with an older viper, however to much traffic on the highway.

Very nice, great find and purchase. We have the porcelain white Designo interior on the E63S. 18 months in use, I can keep them new car clean, BUT, neither my wife or I ever wear jeans in the car.

My parents usually do not wear jeans, however I do when its cold out. So far the leather has been great. I drive this car quite often. We took delivery the very end of September, if I remember correctly. We only have around 3,000 miles so far. It was a special build. We ordered it in February and got the car in September. It was funny, two Mercedes dealers have never seen such a car with this many options and the color combination. We do love the vehicle. It is quite an awesome machine.

Ok, you guys have been a real bad influence on me posting all these great pictures. Yesterday I gave in and bought an S65. I am not normally a real fan of black cars and have never owned one but I gave in and got Obsidian Black with Designo Silk Beige/Grey.

Yes they are awesome cars. The dealer had all black AMG's, in stock and kind of stripped down. My mom wanted white, so we had to do a custom build to get what she wanted. She chose the color and wanted the gold calipers. I checked marked all the boxes basically. Later I plan on modifying it. AMS, Renntech, Weistec, etc.

I do not have the car yet. We have had a W220 S65 for 10 years, the V12 is primarily distinctive with the low end torque when driving the 63 and the 65 back to back. The new S65 seems to have every option except carbon ceramic brakes.

So far, so good. Big switch off the 911, but I think it's just what the doctor ordered.

Just chiming in my two cents on the seats topic. Have had the same interior with monitors etc in my 2015 S550. Monitors were put in for a 5 year old to watch movies on long trips. Have been very pleasantly surprised and after 2 yrs of ownership, interior still looks new. Detail and clean the cars myself

A little disappointed with the seat ventilation. Anyone have similar issues? Also, the trackpad doesn't work very well.
