Too funny Rudy.....I've been way too busy driving!!!!! I plan on posting some pictures. It's just that if I do get a free moment it's either post some pictures or go take a drive. What would you choose??????
Good choice

I had the 20 way multi-contour sport seats on my 530, but I will tell you what is the best about the M seats...

1) Active side bolsters! Every time my wife gets in the car, she sets her seat to Sport. Gotta love it!
2) Ventilated seats! When it's hot out, this is the way to go, especially since my interior is black.

Well....they are nice - but not $6,200 nice.... Or even $4,200 nice ($3,500 + 800). They provide some comfort but not much.

I'm still glad I have them and I'm even more glad that I leased since I will get SOME residual back on them

PS - not sure they are even A/C - just air.

I realize they can be an expensive option but for me, the ventilated seats are worth every penny. I use them almost every day and they work very well. I've used ventilated seats on two different M-B S class cars over the years and neither of them worked as well as the ones on my E60...
