Okay so here is the S580 Spec I am considering, this is a 2023 build obviously...but if I order this it would be a 24:
Have flirted with some different interior options, but I think I will stick with black.
Interior will be this spec, but with the 4D Burmester it will have the metal tweeters in the upper doors:
Colors, I want something other than white or silver this time, deciding between Graphite Grey:
Lunar blue:
Emerald green:
Or rubelite red:
I'm leaning towards the lunar blue, the Pacifica is a similar color but its going so thats not an issue...
Whats everybody think?

Another question, what do you think of those wheels on the above car? Those are the 19s which I would lean to for the ride quality, but the 20s shown above in the other cars are better looking,,,

I'm still yet to warm up to the S Class. Especially the interior. I fully concede that they are class leaders and great cars, but they still don't do anything for me. I do like the Emerald Green color, though.

The console/dash strongly reminds me of the former generation of the Toyota Avalon, and its ski-jump design. I suspect, but can't prove, that's where the Mercedes stylists got the idea.

I highly doubt that MB copied the Avalon lol, but I agree with the similarity. I don't love the layout of the interior as much as I do the one I have but it is what it is.

One thing about the interior, the active ambient lighting is visible in the daylight, so that brings some color to the all black interior, and these are the Burmester 4D tweeters mine would have:

I love silver and gray cars, I have just had a lot of them and I've never ordered a car before so I really have never been picky about colors. The ruby is beautiful, very similar to my old ES300. Green is a polarizing color though, so is burgundy, dark blue is more neutral...

Dark green has been popular in Europe for many years, but has never really caught on in the U.S. Olive green was popular here in the early 70s, but it looked dull and ugly compared to that beautiful Emerald Green you posted.
