C-class desert silver

Where to find or can somebody post a good pic of C-class sedan with Desert Silver Metallic or Travertin Beige Mica?

Aren't these the same colours?

Thanks...

Yes, they are the same color, but it is pretty rare on the coupe here in the US.

I think he said he was looking for a picture of the sedan....

<strike>MB-BOB has a desert silver C320 sedan. I think there is a picture of it in the picture thread.</strike>

Here, I found it for you:

MB-BOB's picture is nice, but it doesn't do it justice. You have to see a clean shiny desert silver in person. I've got Capri Blue, but if I hadn't had a similar color on my previous car, I would have grabbed desert silver. With Java interior, I think it's a beaut.

I think the C-classes look great in Desert Silver. My friend has a Desert Silver M-Class, which in my opinion isn't as good a color on the SUV. However, on the Cs it's quite attractive.

Cheers, BT

So are you telling MB-BOB that he needs to clean his car?!?!?

--Just kidding. I agree with you. I have seen MB-BOB's car in person and it really is a pretty color. Very hard to see the true effect from a picture.

OK, so you want to see it from another angle...

I agree the color looks better in person, but that can be said for all metallic colors...

Agree that. Desert silver with Java-leather looks very, very good. IMHO the best combination fow W203.

You have a very nice car. Tell a bit more about it. Do you have other photos? I'd love to see them. Thank you very much for the pics.

_Pacific_, check out the sticky thread at the top of this forum "Official C-Class Member Pics..." You'll find other pix of my ride on the first page. If you have any specific questions, I'd be happy to answer here, or you can PM me.

I originally pointed to the sticky thread with the picture, but then decided to just link the picture instead. I didn't want to just delete the statement incase others had already read it, so I just used strike out instead. Sorry for the confusion.
