Night Package

Does anyone here have a non-black car with night package?

I was told that with night package, the side mirrors would be black. Too bad there was none in the showroom, Does this look strange, let say a silver car with black side mirrors?

I was curious, so I went to mbusa.com and built one.
Looks cool to me -- tried a few other colors too.
If you click "Preview" in the Night Package area, you can scroll back and forth and compare.

Definitely doesn't look odd, quite the opposite in my opinion.

The window surrounds are black too, so the mirrors fit in perfectly.

CashC300: Is this Selenite Grey Metallic? This color used to be very popular many years ago and it was called charcoal grey.

I am no fan of the diamond grill. Personal I wish they would black out the front grill.

Yep, it's Selenite Grey Metallic.

I see what you mean on the grill - I've seen someone mod it, but not sure it completely sits right. The C63 Grill is much better though.

The theme of the night package is to black out the chrome, strange at they did not apply it to the grill.

CashC300: How do you like your night package? Any regrets?

No, absolutely none. I waited for the pack to be released in the UK.

Very much down to the individual, but it makes the car for me and stands out from the others on the road.

Only thing missing (aside from the grill debate) would be dechroming the door handles. Each one has a little strip. That's being very picky though!

My other recommendation would be Airmatic. All depends on where you drive, wheel size etc. But for the extra cash, it makes a big difference. Handles bumps a lot better, mainly as mine has the 19' alloys and run flats. Looks great too when it lowers in Sport+

Your Coupe is gorgeous. I was torn between your color combo (is that interior saddle brown?) or diamond white with saddle brown and found a dealer demo with the white/saddle brown and jumped on the huge discount. No regrets here but i still also like your color combo a LOT, esp at dusk, that selenite grey just OWNS the road!

Not sure about airmatic. I bought my CLK 13 years ago when new and it is still my daily commute today. Not sure how long will I keep my next car. Airmatic is probably not a good idea if one keeps his car for 10 years.

BTW. Saddle brown interior is my choice as well. What is the chrome strip in the front of your car, the one below the front spoiler?

Thanks, very happy with it and worth the (6 month) wait!

No, it's the cranberry red actually, but I was torn between this and the saddle brown. The red is nice as it's not too bright, or garish, but the brown looks like ultimate luxury, so you can't go wrong!

My preference is Selenite Grey and saddle brown.
Is your cranberry red artico or leather? This is another difficult decision!

It's leather. The red isn't available in artico in the UK.

The demo car I drove was artico and if I had the choice, extra cost in mind, I'd of went for artico. Lots of threads about one vs. the other.

Same in Canada for Cranberry Red. I prefer Saddle Brown and it is available in both leather and Artico.

What kind of suspension do you have; regular, sport or airmatic?
