    I had one for 6 months (2013) exact same colours and AMG specs as this one. Fabulous car for cruising, posing and touring. Sold it and bought an Aston Martin DB9 - happier now!

    Is the massage seat an option or standard? My father purchased a 2013 and the seats came with heat and vent as well as neck warmer, but the button to turn on the massage seat doesn't bring up the menu on the screen.

    No one takes that kind of car to the track anyway, what's the point of having unnecessary stiff suspensions when you're cruising in the city ? MB's interior is way better too, BMWs are really not that well built for that price point. Not to mention that the V6 with a little over 300hp will be more than fast enough for the potential buyers (you could still go with the AMG model).
