I was just doing a build-your-own for a CLK for comparison......Orion is no longer available, so I checked C Class...not there either...hmmm.

The beauty of Orion Blue Metallic. Such a shame, the entire United States will be without the option of selecting this color. Canada, it's all yours

And, it seems, desert silver. I can't find it. Anyone see it on any of the new models?

Desert Silver was deleted from the C-Class options a year or two ago. That justs leave you and me with our collector colors!

I hope they don't delete all the fun colors. Black and Brilliant Silver only would make a rather boring lineup, not to mention cheap-ish... When I bought my first Honda Accord in 1977, the colors available were red, blue, and silver.

'05 C230K SS - Obsidian Black
And yet another color gone ...

Obsidian Black = GONE

If there was ever a black that looks great on a MB, this would be it... too bad they did away with it for 2006.
