I don't think we've had a Matt silver here on forum because it's washed out IMO. Iridium silver woul be great with that interior, like silver arrow.

No comment on othe colors.

I like the new GTC design with yellow exterior, but not with the red interior.
I think if you want the red interior, white or iridium silver exterior would be a better choice.

Yep, or maybe black with red roof

But since you asked:

- blue, too many colours along with roof and wheels

- yellow, same as above

- magno silver, will look best, but would have a long think about Iridium, as it shows the lines much better

Thanks!
If you're dying to get a red interior, I think it looks best with a white exterior though, given the other options, I'm not a big fan of the red interior on this car, at all. The brown leather with diamond stitching is stunning in person, as is the Marron (brown). If you';re dying to get red, the red/pepper gives you a decent amount of red, without having it be overwhelming.

As well, not sure what your long term intentions are , but I noticed that the used market in Canada has a lot of red interiors for sale, so that could be a drawback down the road as well.

Blues and reds don't match man. Busy means the 2 colors conflict.

Try another combination.

I ordered mine wth Brilliant Blue Metallic (896) exterior and Silver Pearl/Black Exclusive Nappa Leather interior (558). Red Interior would not work with blue...but I agree that it looks good with a white exterior.

I asked a few designers they are said Red Matches with almost anything, including blue.

And one of them said "Pure red vs pure blue
matches because they are contrasting colours".

Now I'm confused, not sure who to listen to 😂

It's really easy. There are plenty of pics thru out the forum. Spend the time looking thru them and your heart will quickly tell you which one you prefer.
If you decide to listen to others, you are going to get lost. At the end of the day, you are the one who is going to live with it.

I have yet to see pictures of a solarbeam yellow with red interior, it is a very rare combination with other sports cars too. I have seen picture of one sample of that combo on a Boxster, and someone call it the Ronald McDonalds combination .......

All the solarbeam yellow cars I saw in person have black interiors, although I have seen pictures of that yellow with saddle and also the white interior (both rare). Those do match with the yellow, whether you like them better than black is a matter of personal taste, but maybe something to consider if you want to be different from most other AMG GTs

tell your designers, no not everything matches everything.
If they think everything goes with everything, they arent much of a designer.
red would go with silver.

The key here is pure red and pure blue. Neither of the Mercedes colors are pure tones, they are not exactly red or blue.

The red looks best with Black, Silver, Grey, white.

It's looks too busy with blue and forget yellow. I wanted something fancy inside but definitely wanted Solarbeam? Ended up with Black Exclusive Nappa. Everything else looked weird

Hello - new here, have a slot for a AMG GT-C roadster but would like to have the Alubeam silver or a 'paint to sample' color but can't find the path through the dealership or MBUSA to make it happen... any suggestions ?
