S-Class (W223) [Official] Mercedes-Benz S-Class (W223)

[shakti]

Hallo from Germany,
just received my W223 in the Manufaktur paint Vintage Blue (in other markets this is called China Blue) with complete Manufaktur Interieur in Mokka Leather. Love the car in this style

Completed the Manufaktur look&style with the 20" Maybach alloys, which do fit nicely the chrome appliqués of the Exclusive/Manufaktur package.

Now looking for many km to come !

Enjoy

For the English people:

Elegance and luxury in uni (non metallic) vintage blue from Mercedes-Benz
Experience the exclusive uni vintage blue paint from Mercedes-Benz. This bright, soft shade of blue combines classic style with modern design, sets new standards for aesthetics, and transforms every model into a masterpiece.

Cool color my man. Congrats!

Wow, that's an amazing color @shakti

I've never ever seen one of those vintage colors on any current car (besides retro stuff like Fiat 500)
Huge congratulations on your bold choice!

 

[shakti]

Huge congratulations on your bold choice!

I love the combination of colors, the Manufaktur Vintage Blue with the Mocca brown Manufaktur leather, the high velour brown leather Keder floor mats with Mercedes star stitching. The Mercedes Star can be seen again on the head restraints cushions .

If you open the front doors at night, the Mercedes star is illuminated to the ground, nice effect.
Followed than by the illuminated Mercedes Benz logo on the scuff plates.

In standard Manufaktur Leather spec the steering wheel would have the same brown leather of the seats, as one tone or as 2tone with black. I have chosen for the steering wheel the same dark leather color as used on the upper side of the instrument panel.

To get a more flat and harmonic appeal on the top side of the instrument panel, I ordered no heads up display, so no dark box behind the steering wheel, no dark box reflections in the windscreen.

As you can read, I am still fascinated by this particular S-class

@shakti
Good to read you’re still fascinated by your S. When did you buy it, if I may ask and how many kilometer have you driven in it?

The car was bought recently and I cruised some fair km with the car

Very nice spec and unusual colour, congratulations @shakti. You must be enjoying the soft comfortable seats and beautiful smooth sound of the inline 6.

Thanks for pics; wonderful choices for the interior, too. Congrats again on your inside-out stunner!

You must drive quite a lot of miles. According to the doorsticker the car already had it’s second inspection (B). That’s normally after circa 50,000 km.

Never mind Wish you many more safe and enjoyable miles.

This would be my choice… brilliant!!! The only change I would make is get light and dark blue leather inside but I feel that MB does not offer that even a s a customizable option

Manufaktur gets pretty close to that with their blue interior:

 

[Serpens]

China blue looks great with the Yacht blue interior. You can see it here on a G63:

 

[Mr. Mercedes]

Congratulations @shakti. Beautiful combination.

Can't wait for the rumored roll out of 'Manufactur' across more markets, including ours.
