Actually they don't. Although the design is similar the buttons are not identical. The ones in the C-class has more red realestate. The buttons are not identical.



Next attempt please.

NO, AMG just makes just the 6.3 L engine. Rest are all MB engines with a turbo or supercharger slapped on.

And no, Hassan is trolling. Nothing more.

So venting my opinions by making valid claims is suddenly classified as trolling. Then I guess we are all trolls then. Can someone turn this into an avatar for me? I'm officially a troll.

They are exactly the same. I would bet they are made in the same place, by the same people with same materials.

Its a picture of the rear seat command system..for S classes equipeed with that..
one knob for each rear seat passenger.. and for each screen

The MS button is for the PC installed with those screens..

Re: Official: The New BMW 7 Series

I find it amazing as to how insecure some people are about others opinions/feedback. Lets not forget that this is a forum and people are expected to express their opinions (whether positive or negative). Lets not be so critical over such petty things.

Re: Official: The New BMW 7 Series

I agree it's time for some humour ... off topic of course.

Hope BMW will do a better job with the next generation 7-series.
Then I guess you could say that MB used lower end material on purpose on the C as to not compete with the S?

What is going on? We're arguing about knobs now? What if they use the same pedal, is that going to be a problem? Same rear view mirror? Oh they are using the same carpeting, obviously less prestigious.

We are all here to debate, sure, but there's a limit. I don't know if you are trying to throw fuel at the fire on purpose or not, but you usually don't do that. I'd be careful though, because people here regard you highly (I'm serious). Wouldn't want your respect to drop like the stock market today would we?

I was the first to admit that using the 7er front end on the X1 was a mistake and it is a valid point. But the drivel here about knobs is trolling. I understand you have an opinion about it, but you also have an a!! hole, you don't go around displaying it in public now do you?
