I have the same one also , C 200 1995 ,I'm from Indonesia , I realize also that my car has different silver colours from the other C-class 1995-1998 , it has a "wet" looks, I thought it was re-paint by the last owner , but by reading your thread , it seems Mercedes has issuing several this kind of colour at that time ( I have seen on the road too, but very rare) . According to its document , this kind of colour they stated it as " Silver Grey metalic" ( has a wet look and shining effect).
I dont know also , exactly the real name of the colour according to Mercedes .

Hi,

Selamat datang. Are you from Jakarta?

I've never ever seen that color in Indo. It's really nice indeed.

definitely a unique colour, you don't see it very often! I'd describe it as a seafoam-ish colour, but i'm sure you could stop by an MB dealer and they'd know for sure.

I like that color a lot. In fact, I've seen one like that just the other day. I used to own a 98 C230 in black opal, and don't remember if I had scene your shade of blue. When I was buying, I was trying to find Black with Parchment interior, but I ended up going for the Black Opal with Grey interior!

Nice looking daily driver !

Its called TEAL BLUE (USA name). It was available on the C class in 1994 and 1995. The color was retired across the line in 1995.

Another couple of very nice, but rare colors on the C's are ICE BLUE and CANYON BROWN.

Your color is rare, though not as rare as Ice Blue or Canyon Brown. The car isn't rare (in a sense that its worth more b/c of the color). These colors are rare because they weren't too popular. Attached is a pic of a Canyon Brown C (a 1994 model that was recently for sale with only 16,000 miles!!) and Ice Blue on a 1994 E class.

What do you guys think of my car's color. 1995 mercedes.-canyon-c.jpg
