The colours are gorgeous, too...

WOW!!What a car!
Hi raul what improvement you expected for the storage compartments in the centre console...

I have to say that they've corrected everything I ever had a problem with as far as the exterior is concerned... a marvellous job. Still not digging the dash, though.

Well they corrected the ones after the armrest, so that's a good thing.
But I've always been bugged by the storage-compartments in the center console, below the heaters/clock.

The shutline is a tad too big, too obvious, and they look slightly plain. I hoped they could reduce the deadspace and make them fit more nicely into the dash. However, it's really nitpicking here!

My other complaint is the rear wheelarch, bit too much for my taste. This fantastic brown hides that well though, and the new bumpers harmonize better with these wheelarchs.

The FL is really fantastic... only these double-fogs, really MB should stop with it. It's a gorgeous car, this FL really changed the game.

Looks amazing! Not sure if these have been posted. Are there two set of led's, one in the front bumper and one in the main headlights or are the ones in the main headlights turn signals?
