Where? Are you referring to the seats (not suede) or the pic of the inside A-Pillars. Neither is suede, just looks like regular head liner type material to me. Monitor upgrade or new spectacles needed?

Headliner is made from Alcantara. Did a quick google search, cause honestly I didn't know if it's synthetic or not. Here's a quick description I found> Alcantara upholstery:
Alcantara material, though man-made, has the look and feel of suede and stands up well to severe use.<
To answer your question; Yes it is standard on the E55.

The headliner is Alcantara Ultrasuede, which is a synthetic material.

I'm thinking of replacing the grey one with a charcoal one, do you guys think it's gonna be too dark?

What? since when was alcantara headliner standard on E55? I'm pretty sure it only comes with designo interior - as seen in those photos

The photo was taken by the dealership I purchased the vehicle from in Tampa. I live in NY and the car is scheduled to arrive tomorrow - I am very anxious to finally have this car in my posession.

Thnks.
It's a good color, one of the best.
I wonder how it would look in Maranello Red though ;-)

Got one more.
IMHO 210 E55 is the best looking E55 ;-)
It's not pretty.....but it makes you respect it, unlike 211.
I often notice little kids and their fathers pointing fingers at it saying cool car ;-)
