I haven't seen any cars in here with the Night Package.

Is there any reason that not many people are going for this option?

Mine is due for delivery in August and I have gone for the polar white with the night pack. It was only a matter of 100 dollars or so extra so I went for it.

Never heard of it...?

Matter of opinion, naturally, but I prefer the chrome vs all the black.

CornishPasty

yep very true. I felt the chrome surrounds on the windows made it seem a bit too much of an older gents car... but just personal opinion

I'd have loved it on my C350e order but it was not an option, is it only AMG line ?

Might wrap the chrome bits for same effect ? dunno?

Not an option for USA cars as far as I recall, so less people talking about it.

Hpbingham,

Not an option in the UK. I have only seen in when I have been on Mercedes Germany as an option on the configuratior. Must say I wish it was an option in the UK as I much prefer it. I'd even consider going for an out of the ordinary colour e.g. red if the night package was available as I think it would look awesome.

As they say - "each to their own"!

in Poland it's expensive ~1000$, but i love black grill and wheels

I love the black, and especially those wheels and grill neither of which could I spec as a factory option for the UK market. I'm planning to get a paint job on the wheels and change the grill for a diamond single fin grill on my car if or when it ever arrives!

CornishPasty

Why do they have these option variations in different markets?

Hpbingham,

I really wish I knew. The Germans have it great. You should see the number of options they have. They can choose from around 15 different wheels.

Night package is avaliable in Norway also. unfortunately not available when i ordered my car. had my mirrors and chrome parts wrappet in black instead.

DIY is cheaper.
Some dont like having the rear windows darkened without the rest of the car.
It's very difficult to find a matching tint for the front, low visibility, and the law in most countries doesn't allow it anyways.
Chrome trim goes best with dark paint (blue, black).
Cars that come with silver or white are best to have either in black, color matched, or orange like the CLA shooting break (looks like a tennis shoe, still - funky).
What I'd try personally, if I had the time:
- Wrap/paint the car in yellow or orange (see lambo colors), blackout trim.
- On a white car, cover the chrome with white carbon fiber - blackout is nolonger special in my opinion.
- Full/dark tint

Sweet. Now I don't have to imagine what the car will look like when I wrap the chrome trim.

I'd never heard of it before today. Not available in Japan, either.

I might have gone for it on my black C200. I really like the all black look. Would definitely do it if I could get the black multispoke wheels like my neighbor has on his S63.

Still, the chrome offers a nice contrast on the black.

Since all the base W204 and other models have black trim on their cheap base models I cannot see the exclusivity in this package.


Just looks like a base model with black mirror housings.

I think the Chrome will look great on darker cars, but red, white, silver, the black would look awesome.

just my $.02

With the red interior components of AMG, I think it would look amazing too.

CornishPasty

Must admit, I am looking forward to having a slightly more exclusive setup, especially when driving back to the UK

I really like that additions of the Night Package as I thought there was too much chrome going on with my C400. Had the package been available here in the US and had I also placed my order for the car instead of buying off the lot I definitely would have option it with it. To me though it only looks good on either a white, red, or black car. Any other color it just doesn't seem like it would look right.

The black package is for MY16s only in the USA. I actually prefer the chrome look over the black but am considering it only because those black-insert 19" rims are only available with the night package now.

Here's mye C250 with Night Package 😎

I love it, never thought of it as basemodel-looking, as someone called it. But, to each his own, I suppose...

angeloxnet

i like the "murdered" look of this

I asked my dealer the same thing. Simply put, it's not listed as an option in the brochure/catalogue and salesmen generally don't mention it. So most buyers are not aware of it.
