It's crazy what is possible these days with Manufaktur-colors for paint and leather!

"Personalization" is an immensely lucrative endeavor for M-B/AMG Manufaktur, Mulliner, Porsche Sonderwunsch, BMW Individual, et al.
 
All those paint and leather options yet you still can't replace the shiny plastic on the door handles, center console and steering wheel, lol.

Baby steps. They're getting there slowly.

Apparently the intent is to grow Manufaktur across the range.

We are certainly getting a lot more options in Australia with the most recent model launches. Is MB finally listening.
 
They need to put small studios inside the dealerships where people will want to order more of the manufaktur options. It’s time for the E and CLE to be added to this and Mercedes needs to offfer more soft top colors too.

I’m not convinced people would spring for it on the E and CLE in the U.S. The high end Designo interiors that were offered last decade on the C and E-class had a very low take rate.

The question I have to ask is.... How many people knew? Manufaktur seems to be a thing Mercedes never really shouted about much for anything other than the S class and it's Maybach trims.
If nothing else it should be offered for the E/CLE AMGs because they're gonna be north of $100k and at at that point you can probably start convincing people to spend that extra little bit to make it theirs.

I get that. I wonder if pricing can be adjusted to reflect the lower priced car as the starting point. Would love to see the E with these interiors. At least the 53. A CLE Cabrio with a brown or tan or blue top would be stunning.
