 | Re: MB - Bring back the quality and color Yikes... That sounds gross. Though I have seen a W124 that was forest green with green leather. Don't think I could get past that. Especially when beige or gray goes so much better with dark green. Mercedes in particular used to be highly customizable. I suspect that it was very expensive to have so many choices which probably explains why these options no longer exist. Are cloth seats available in Europe on new Mercs still? |

 SL (only 550 and 600 - not 280 and 350) and CL are the only Mercedes with leather as standard here in germany…leather costs around 1.500 € to 5.000 or 6.000 for the Full leather S-Class interior…  …and you can only get them with seat heating!  Which costs an additional 350 € or so!

| Re: MB - Bring back the quality and color Sorry if i go off topic, but am a fan of interiors. This picture below of W140 shows the quality that needs to come back, but unlikely with situation in the autoindustry.  |
