Rant ; The W223 forum on MBworld has become cancerous with Streamliner clogging up the forum with never ending complaints. He should trade his in and get a W222 or something else to complain about.

Most people that I know with the W223 praise it. Some of the early examples though have some issues with 48V system which is an overall MB issue from 2020-21.

I got an update that mine on the water arriving at port in a few weeks.

Still no word or dealer ordering guide for the S63 in the US. Glad I didn’t hold out. Not sure who is more incompetent with meeting timelines - the unprofessional MBUSA or AMG and the E-Performance lineup.

Couldn't be happier with our W223. A noticeable step up from the W222 in terms of ride, refinement and UI. I also happen to really like the sportier design. It's still got gravitas but just much more palatable to a younger demographic. I see far more W223's on the road than I did W222's. No complaints with the car so far other than a few black gloss trim pieces that were replaced.

He's always been sorta ridiculous. I'm surprised he isn't still complaining about how the SL lost it's hard top.

I have no complaints up to now. One of the better S I’ve owned.
 
Report that the S-Class Facelift due from end of 2025 will get Hyperscreen
Apparently the S-Class must meet this new MB standard. But I personally don't have any problems with the current situation. I like the wood on the dashboard very much. After the facelift that will be gone and you'll only see a screen...

For me it would be much more important to make a clean sweep in the interior regarding quality of materials used.
 
Assume the hyperscreen will remain an option, so you don't have to spec it if you want/like it.
 
I'd be mad as well if my brand new $150k+ top of the line Mercedes-Benz just broke down in the middle of the road and completely shut down.
