My first C63 AMG - rare colour?

Hello all,

It has arrived, over the moon with this car and I don't need to preach as to why! That sound

Are there many around in this colour? Looks almost black in the shade but a tint of blue in the light.. I love it.

Great shots and love the color. I would say that and the light blue are pretty rare to see. Congrats! Got any plans for it?

Love that color, I have seen only 2 others in that color, it is definitely one you don't see too often!

Thanks chaps, I'm very content.

No plans at the moment, a friend who owns a garage and has got into mapping cars is dying to play with it. He recons c510bhp from a map but I am a) happy with the power (for now) and b) not convinced it will make that much difference?

Any recommendations though would be much appreciated of course!

The lawn is a bugger to get straight lines in during the summer months I tell you

I'd say its a rare color for the W204. This and the light blue as INSIGNIA mentioned.
Color looks gorgeous and awesome pics!

Same colour. Cavansite blue in Canada, UK etc, Lunar Blue to our 'Murican friends. By buddy has the E63S wagon in that colour. It really can project a variety of shades depending on the light.

Ahh the Lunar Blue Metallic / Cavansite C63. I've seen four of these total (three 2012's and a 2013) - and I looked for mine for over a year. My fav color by far. I do wish AMG / MB published color / model numbers like BMW does. Quite helpful when looking for a needle in a haystack.

Gorgeous car buddy!

I searched for my Cavansite Blue for about 9 months. Worth the search!

AWESOME color! My last five cars have been blue, but after I searched for months for a C63 in blue I pulled the trigger on my Mars Red. Jealous!
