For all the "I can't believe this $100k car doesn't have..." talk, I really do think a heated steering should have been included

Darn... wish I'd known. I've had it in the last couple Rovers (Range and LR4) and in the winter months it is a nice creature comfort.
I'd rather lament no HUD or FLIR night camera... But W213 will have HUD (along with a lot of other goodies).

I believe you can retrofit a non-amg heated steering wheel but you'll have a standard steering wheel at that point. Unfortunately, a heated wheel doesn't exist for the style wheel in the AMG.
If you were that desperate you could probably find a way to just swap back and forth between them. Granted that is a pain and you lose that sporty wheel in the winter months.
I know what you mean though, I drive an x5 in the winter with the cold weather package that comes with a heated wheel and it is definitely a nice thing to have.

Is it because the heat might cause damage to the suede part of the steering wheel that they don't offer this option?

Hi,
Is it possible to swap the 3 spoke FL
to this steering wheel
I heard as long as the button function are the same, it should be PnP.
How about if this version has no paddle shift, can it still be installed (rarely use the pddle shift anyway)
Thanks

Don't know if it helps but a 2013 CL63 has a heated steering wheel. I have a Designo package, not sure that it matters if you just want the wheel. Different look but all the functionality. FWIW
