S-Class (W223) Mercedes-Benz S-Class (W223) Facelift

«I think we should look to the Maybach 57 for inspiration — its imposing scale and timeless silhouette are pure luxury.

That's one of the ugliest luxury car, that's why it failed.

 

[Uygar]

The wheels fitted to that S-class look really classy. Mercedes are on fire with their wheel designs, they are very stylish.

They aren’t new designs though. Been offered on the pre LCI as well.

 

[Uygar]

Kinda off topic, but do you guys know what this color is? It’s definitely not hightechsilber or selenite. Perhaps a Manufaktur shade? I really liked it for some reason. Looks very elegant.

 

[Swissbob]

Could be aragonite silver.

 

[Swissbob]

Or Seagull Grey Metallic .

One of these.

 

[Swissbob]

Aragonite silver was available on the C217/A217 and C238.

Thanks mate. I checked the configurator now, it’s definitely one of these 3.

 

[Swissbob]

You can check Möwengrau metallic ( Sea Gull grey)

I really looks lovely on that car.

This car has just one solution to not look like something from 15 years ago, blacking out the exterior to match that mediocre front.

All other combos make it as uninspiring as an old Toyota Crown. Sorry

Dunno about “Ugliest” mate.

Yikes, now I can’t unsee the resemblance.

You need to choose the LWB.

Am I missing something with Mercedes blacking out the spoiler intakes? If so, why..
They managed to look more premium when body-colored, like the pre-facelift.
If they were body colored, it would take attention away from the black frame around the grill.
Mercedes should offer at least a silver option instead of blacking them out altogether if this is the case.
I am slowing coming around to the looks of this facelift. It is not as elegant as the pre-facelift. It comes across as brash-looking with some clashing
details. One element that I am glad to see dialed back is the minimalist theme on this facelift. Minimalism seems to be fading, and we will probably see less of it with the W224 S-Class. Seeing that this Facelift landed on its 140th anniversary, Mercedes should have gone all out with attention to detail, quality, and finish, unlike any other S-Class. They went all out with the stars on the grill, headlights, and taillights. Those are like permanent birthday candles.

This would be my spec

 

[Swissbob]

Very tasteful.

Personally I prefer a brighter interior.

 

[Uygar]

Burgundy with blue... Interesting.

Burgundy with blue... Interesting.

Yes its a bit bazaar I would prefer to have a beige, white or burgundy colour interior with this exterior colour.

I kinda like this elbait grun with 21 inch dark wheels, dark chrome grill with night Pack and the interior with tobacco brown black coloured Nappa with the amber dark brown wood and gold Mercedes emblems on the pillows on the head rests.

that brown interior with brown wood looks luxury other than that SHITE screen
