The steering wheel airbag is unfortunately very much a cheaper reproduction, and not period correct. You could put a W208 airbag on it to make it look better, but it would still not be period correct. Why wouldn’t they opt for a real AMG wheel since they are claiming that it is so AMG?
Something very strange is going on with this car. Look at the engine cover - that is not from a 2001 or 2002 S55 AMG. Those cars all came with black AMG engine covers. Also, why was such a low mile engine swapped into this car? Do we have a VIN for it? If this engine and engine cover were in an S55, it would also not be the original engine from that car either.
