At the top of the screen you'll see "tools" and in the drop down menu you'll see VIN decoder. Put your VIN in there and you'll get all sorts of wonderful information.

Mercedes makes about 20 silver colors and mine is cubanite silver, for whatever that means.
Dynamic seats will pump side of the seat on sharp turn to give you extra support.
Looks like nice buy although cdi always sell at high premium.
But if you drive a lot, it is just a matter of time to get your purchase price back on fuel cost savings.
Looks like vented seats as well, but I bet the fan wires already broke off.

Good info! But it doesnt say what color it is. Im nearly certain its Iridium silver but Im not sure. Still trying to figure out what the vents are in the backs of the seats.

If you paste VIN here, the forum script will automatically hotlink it to decoder with color code in it.
You can remove the VIN later.

You can get your dealer to run the vin and tell you the color.

The russian site is good as a backup but this site is better, it's in English:
http://www.vindecoderz.com/EN/Mercedes-Benz
Best would be epcnet, but it's too slow as it takes a long while to load up, it's free to set up an account though.
Nice car, has real leather instead of MB-Tex, air conditioned seats, and you have the side blinds in the rear doors.
