Mercedes-Benz debuts $27,000 trim, $24,000 paint options in Australia
Marketed under the Manufaktur Exclusive banner, there are 50 new exterior colours and 20 new interior upholstery options.
There's an array of tasteful options, from rich violet exterior paints to elegant emerald upholstery. However, the Manufaktur Exclusive range also includes lurid green and orange exterior finishes, and bright yellow and Kermit the Frog-style green upholstery options.

Manufaktur Exclusive upholstery options are now available for the Mercedes-Benz S580L and Mercedes-Maybach S680 limousines, and carry a price tag of $27,600 – or more than an entry-level Chery Tiggo 4 small SUV.
Not only that, but to get one of them with the S580L, you have to also tick the option box for the Business Class Package ($13,100) or Manufaktur Exclusive Interior Package ($4600).
There are 20 new upholstery combinations available, including two-tone options.
Manufaktur Exclusive exterior finishes are available across not only these two luxury limos, but also the Mercedes-AMG SL63 Roadster and GT63 Coupe.
These carry a price tag of $24,300.
There are more than 50 finishes available, including solid, metallic, Magno and Bright options. Mercedes-Benz says many of these have been "carefully selected from a repertoire of past special models and customer requests, while others are drawn from the Mercedes-Benz design archive".
"Whether customers favour timeless sophistication or bold individuality, the Manufaktur palette offers a level of expression beyond the ordinary," the company says.
Of course, Mercedes-Benz isn't alone among luxury brands in offering expensive customisation options.
Porsche, for example, offers Exclusive Manufaktur Paint to Sample options costing upwards of $20,000, with over 190 colours available.

Porsche Macan: Petrol successor to launch by 2028, possibly with a new name
With production of the first-generation Porsche Macan set to finish up in 2026, the luxury sports car brand will be without a petrol engine offering in its best-selling model globally. Porsche has already stopped making petrol-powered Macans for Europe and Australia, but they remain on sale, for now, in North America and elsewhere. The second-generation Macan (below), launched in 2024, is designed as an electric-only model. Unfortunately for Porsche and many other car makers, EV demand hasn't matched their expectations, especially in the US, which has necessitated a re-think about their EV plans. In a call with investors, Porsche CEO Oliver Blume confirmed the automaker will 'hedge' its EV strategy by 'developing a compact SUV with both ICE and hybrid versions' to complement the Macan EV. He said the company is 'speeding up the process there with very short development times', and expected the new SUV to be launched into major markets 'no later than 2028'. The tight development timeline suggests the petrol Macan replacement will be based on the Volkswagen Group's Platform Premium Combustion (PPC), an evolution and replacement for the MLB architecture used in the original Macan. Earlier rumours indicated Porsche might re-engineer the second-generation Macan's EV platform to accept a petrol engine. Like the first Macan, the new SUV will likely share a lot in common with the third-generation Audi Q5, production of which began late last year. Naturally with the petrol Macan replacement just receiving the green light, Mr Blume didn't give too much away about the vehicle, but said it would be 'very, very typical Porsche for this segment and also differentiated from the BEV Macan', leading some to speculate the new SUV will have a different name. We can glean some clues about the new SUV's powertrains from the latest Q5, which is available with a choice of 48V mild-hybrid petrol and diesel drivetrains, as well as a selection of plug-in hybrid drivetrains. Porsche has foresworn diesel engines, so that leaves behind the base Q5 TFSI with a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder, and the SQ5 with a 3.0-litre turbocharged V6. The Q5 2.0 TFSI makes 150kW and 340Nm, has a seven-speed automatic transmission, and is available in both front- and all-wheel drive. The former requires 8.6s to complete the 0-100km/h dash, while the latter needs just 7.4s. As for the SQ5, it has 270kW and 550Nm at its disposal, a standard seven-speed auto paired with all-wheel drive, and a 0-100km/h time reduced to 4.5s. The Q5 e-hybrid is available in both 220kW/450Nm and 270kW/500Nm specs. For the more powerful variant, the official 0-100km/h time is 5.1 seconds. Both have an all-wheel drive plug-in hybrid system that pairs a 2.0-litre turbocharged four-cylinder with a 105kW electric motor built into the seven-speed dual-clutch transmission. The electric motor is fed by a 25.9kWh battery with up to 100km of EV range under WLTP testing, and which supports AC charging up to 11kW, but not DC fast charging. With the fast-approaching launch date, Porsche's new SUV may well use the Q5 drivetrains as is, or spruce them up a bit with pinch of horsepower here and a dash of torque there.
