Guys, isn't it time for an official thread?

We have a press release and official pics, I say it's time for an MB fan to create an official thread!

 

[MoSs]

mind blowing….

Marvelous interior, but...... why are the buttons inside on the ceiling/roof of the car with hazard light, looking so cheap? I could be mistaken, but how I see it, they're made of normal black plastic. I'd expect in this car aluminium buttons. These ones look like pre FL E-Klasse buttons :-(

Seriously?

Doe normaal man

Een beetje theater hier kan geen kwaad

 

[klier]

Daar ben ik voor toch?

 

[Wolfgang]

Ah so, a better pic.

[klier]

Oh no black plastic

 

[Mick Briesgau]

^^ Not quite like the E-klasse vor Mopf, but still. @ Wolfgang, do you know of what material those buttons are made?

 

[Mick Briesgau]

Oh no black plastic

Steek de draak er maar mee, Klier. Ik vind dat plastic vreselijk goedkoop en onpassend.

 

[klier]

It's in a spot you will ONLY look when you have to actually use one of the buttons, and it's surrounded by suede. Trust me, you'll be alright when you touch it!

But then again I like Bimmers where every single button is made of plastic

The S-Class has 4, the S-Coupe has 4. I'm expecting the 4 air-vent motif to be consistent amongst MB's higher-end offerings. Where is the "one more air vent" you speak of?

For some reason I feel that these four air vents kind of dominate the interior. Very bold parts.

I find the very same four air vents of the S sedan and coupe to be more subtly integrated in the interior.

It's just a personal point of view

 

[Giannis]

By the way, I am waiting for Marcus'es comments on the interior.

@Merc1 what's better, S sedan, S coupe or this?

 

[Betty Swollocks]

Looks superb.

Interior comparison, SLS Vs AMG GT

I love how the DNA is so obvious between the two. It's just that the SLC looks like it's moved on 2 generations. But in isolation the SLS still holds it's own.

 

[Centurion]

Who's head of interior design at Mercedes these days? The doors of the new C-Class and the centre console of the SLC are amongst the most unique and throughout design features I've been in any car the past 5 years.

I was just thinking what if you need to hit the hazard button if you suddenly stopped and you need warn others behind you like they do in Europe and else where.
But I just remembered that new Mercedes cars turn on the hazards automatically now.

Not sure if this feature is on in US bound cars.
