I believe that on the W210, the Designo package is only the interior two-tone (black and white or the rarer black and red). On some newer models it also includes things like different wood and exterior paint.
Unfortunately, the Designo leather doesn't wear as well, particularly the steering wheel.

Its really nice but the as others mentioned, there something is wrong in the hood otherwise white color E55 02 with Navi + 2tones is really rare.
2002 should be more reliable...

Mine is W210 E55 Designo Espresso and didn't come with 2-tone leather seats. Trimmings on dash have different kind of wood.
Dashboard and door panels have 2-tone nappa leather. 2-tone seats like black/charcoal and red cherry are factory options you can choose when you special order your E55. But it doesn't mean they are Designo edition.
I believe the same is true for Euro versions with designo package. Although I've seen w202 C36 with green(yuck!) as well as red color interiors but only in pictures.
here's a pic.

I do like the color combo. Very rare.. It defiantly had some body work done. If you notice their isn't any engine pictures, so it's obvious he didn't just not close it correctly.
What do you guys think about the pricing?

My eyes fail? or it has the MATE finish wood trim? i only seen one car in my life (W210) with mate wood, one customer with an E240 special order this wood style. Car says in the fender "MASTER EDITION" comes with all extras possible, Xenon, Command 2.0, PTS, Folding mirros, heated/vented seats, infrared sensors in the B pillas, all possible in the W210 extras.. And Yes... He chose an E240 to all this extras :S never mind..
I think the mate finish wood never comes in birds eye mapple.
I thik the problem with the hood is not latched correctly, but need to see the car in person. anyway, he don't take pics to the engine bay, maybe it wasn't look so good
ob1kenobi said good, Is not a designo edition.. 2 tone color combo is a special order for the E55's, but not designo
All white cars comes with black parktronic sensor gaskets? all other colors comes grey!

Look at the tips on the picture with the trunk open. RUST. Probably why you don't see close ups or engine compartment. Also the steering wheel looks like someone wanted to be a racecar driver.
I would stay clear at any price!

Hello all,
Yes its beautiful AMG. It is listed in cars.com with free carfax which reads "Damage to left front", + the rust and steering wheel condition.
With that in mind, asking price is to high.
Seems that non rusty E55's exist only in south.

I'm pretty certain the car in the ad isn't Designo, just two tone. A rare color combo, but condition is worrisome.
