White woodgrain option/mod?

Hey guys, saw a designo S-class at my dealership today and the woodgrain was absolutely stunning!!

Here are some pics as an example:











I think it's called "designo Metallized Ash Wood", or white woodgrain or something.

Anyone know if this option even exists for W212, or if it can be custom done?

Go back to the dealer and read the manufactures sticker on the window. It should say the type of wood. Most Mercedes shows this in the first or second line down from the top of the price list.

I'm pretty sure a good custom shop can do something similar, that's their whole business. The question is, how much money are you willing to spend? :B

If I could do the first one (Mine's MB-Tex), I would love to do it, or a close color to diamond silver metallic'ish blue wood would be great too.

BTW, the look of the first one makes me change my goals and have to work harder to afford such a beautiful car. I'm pretty sure that car makes me smile every time I get in, until the first 7 years

Anyway, since, those two wood grains are not available in E-Class 2018; I'm willing to pay for Glossy finish Vinyls, if it is worth it.
Here is what I got from MBUSA.

...I just wanted to explore options or possibilities for putting it in W212.

Thanks. For that gorgeous wood, the budget is essentially limitless...

I was watching a new 2017 E300 features, look, startup etc., video and observed that, the sedans are now all look same, and it just that, "Would you like it in Small, Medium or Large sir?" Style..!
The c-class guys are happy, S-class guys would cry; and E-Class guys have nothing to say.

You can always get your interior sealed. My SA has at my dealer has the same color interior on his E as yours. He has had it sealed. No issues with cleaning.
