Whats everyone thing?

White on back or Black on Black?

My old car was silver, so its time for a change. I dont mine dealing with taking care of the the pain in the *** a black car is. But I find white very nice and clean too.

if the choices are limited to white and black, i would choose black. I don't like red for sedans but red C230 is an exception. it looks nice in pics and in real life.

I like black/black. Not big on white cars, just never appeal to me. If I did it over again, I'd probably get Orion Blue. Love that color! Don't care for the ash interior though, gotta be black.

Last one was a white on black - the white was difficult to keep clean during the Florida summer - those daily thunderstorms!
Current one is a red on grey - feels a lot brighter inside, looks good with the aluminum trim - not sure how durable its going to be.
If you are trying to avoid the cost of a metallic don't forget the red. It really does look good on the C class Benz, and still not too many of them about.

Make your choice and go with it. By the 4th or 5th month, you probably are going to kick yourself. LOL

Where are you getting the car from and did you settle on a lease deal?

Looks like it will end up being black. Just came from Benz of Miami and did the typical "walked out and give us a call" deal. Will most likely we will pick it up this week.

Having seen a wide colour variety of C230Ks, overall I like the Paprika Red and Glacier white. Never really been a fan of white cars, but with the black interior it's sweet

Best of luck with the purchase
