I know on the S550's and CL550's did not have full leather interior on there base cars, witch is a shame for a car in the price range. I know my buddies CL63 has leather just about everywhere but I still question the quality, I just don't feel the car will hold up well in daily use after 10 years. But most cars these days are made as cheap as possible, but to appear pricey...
The S550, CL550, CLS550 and CLS63 all need MB Designo interiors. Without Designo, the interiors look and feel cheap. The Designo option adds full leather that is of a significantly higher quality than what is found in the base models. The base models also use MB Tex on the dash and some other surfaces, but not with Designo.

Would not concern me, if I had the luxury of buying an Aston Martin it would be a 6-Speed manual... I don't care if a dual clutch is faster or more advance. 6-Speed manual with a clutch brings me the most joy.

I think it's ridiculous that they nickel and dime full leather at that price point.

Exactly! If I recall the bottom half of the dash and other bits of my friends CL63 is not covered in leather... At that price I want to know a field of cows was murdered and half a forest leveled.

For around $200k, it's definitely one car to consider in that range.

Guy in an adjacent neighborhood has one. Never fail to see him outside cleaning it. He's going to wear down the paint at the rate I see him. ******* monster that car.
