sorry...no XENON I was mistaken

OK, now what's that color? The description says special order. Orion?

Also, those seats look like double stitch leather, but the door panels look like MB-Tex. It's been awhile since I saw the leather door panels, so someone tell me if this is a true, full leather package.

Shiny car. I'm guessing Zaino???

It's Orion Blue. The other two special order "blues" are Wedgewood (teal) and Midnight (almost black). The sport option includes charcoal full leather standard. The double-stitching is there, and the door panels have the "gathers" indicating full leather.

MB-BOB

Thought so, MarkL, but I just wasn't sure.

BTW, I like your new LOGO. The other avatar was nice too. Both are tastefully photographed. Gotta dust off my camera after Christmas!

MarkL

Thanks. But, there were a couple of characteristics about the other pic that I liked. It was at a slightly different angle and showed the badge in the recess a little clearer/brighter. But I think this one is cleaner overall. I had to fill up that roll I was shooting which had the compass pictures and I thought "aha!", so there it is. Definitely -- get the camera out and snap some pics!

Lynn

MB-BOB, here is your chance to upgrade from that funky Desert Silver to that beautiful Orion Blue.

Uh, Lynn, I think I'll pass on the Orion Blue Sedan... It would remind me of you and tommy every time I got in it.

Just kiddin, of course. Say, I had thought earlier to ask if you were going to be in St. Louis next week. But then you mentioned somewhere that you were out of town. I'm driving to St.Louis Sunday for the holidays, but not in the MB... need the minivan to haul all those Christmas presents for relatives in Belleville and N. County. The schedule is pretty tight, anyway... leaving to drive back to TX on the 27th. But would like to meet sometime, (if not Christmas, sometime later) if you're interested.

Lynn

MB-BOB, I would like to meet sometime. I have been able to meet some of the people from the motorsports boards I frequent, and always have a good time. I will be in Colorado until the 13th of January, so it will have to be another time.

If I had a spare 35 G's, I'd have two Orion Blue Mercedes.

Stay tuned for more episodes of "As MBWorld Turns". Will Lynn and MB-BOB ever meet? What will happen if they do? Will MB-BOB admit that Orion is a better car, to get in some brownie points with Lynn? Will they attend Bingo night together at the local VFW?

Stay tuned...

Lynn

Luckily, for you. I am too old for his daughter.

MB-BOB

Just ignore him, Lynn. You know those youngsters... always talking before they think.

You should see his comment regarding the blow-up doll in the "air pump" post. He sure let one slip, and I'm not talking about a Chalupa salute!
