Well, after a visit to Geneva Motor show, I just ordered mine...

Premium pack, advanced nav with HUD, dampers, black leather pack, in digital white.
Decided against the aero pack even though I much prefer those wheels and avoided the premium plus as I don’t like the weight of sunroof and electric seats etc, and it’s too expensive.

Digital white is strange, looks white in sunlight, and silver in the shade.

Fast, discreet, v modern, safe, FUN.
I’m happy despite coming down from a BMW 640d M Sport.

I do 20k miles pa, so went for a lease at circa £400pm

Will post pics when it arrives mid June.

What was the test drive like?
Does it run motorways well or a big crash how about the throttle response if throttle kicked to the floor?

AMG has become this decade's Burberry check, hasn't it?
I would agree and even say any AMG line Mercedes has a whiff of naffness to it
