Nice car!

BTW, is buying a Benz from Sears worse than buying a Rolex from Costco?

Wow. Incredible. I'll never own something like that. But even at 19 I LOVED big cars. And this one surely doesn't disappoint! Congrats on the purchase. What's the specs?

Very elegant. Nice choice. Congrats.
I changed the interior lighting to blue in summer and warm amber in winter, to visually cool or evoke a fireplace, respectively. Have fun fiddling with all the options...

Very nice! Congrats!

We have a CLS550 and an E550 Coupe. I was looking at the new E coupe today but they don't have a V8 option for it yet.

The S-class is just amazing, MB really hit it out of the park with the latest gen. Congrats on the new set of wheels. Love the color combo, but unsure of the matte exterior myself. As long as you are happy and loving it, that's all that matters!

Nice car. I just sold my 2014 S 550. A great vehicle and fun to drive and own. Picked up a 2017 Lexus LX 570. For now, I like it better than the MB but I am still in the honeymoon phase. Enjoy.

I kept strolling to see the Ferrari pics :-)

But seriously, its a luxurious car, owned both coupe and sedan versions. Looking forward to complete revamp next year.

Enjoy riding in style!

The LX570 is really luxurious. Nice sled.
