From the picture, it looks like granite grey because granite grey gave off some green/blue tones (depending on the lighting).

Yes that color is Granite Grey Metallic, which gives off a blue/green color look; but yes, it's called granite grey. And yes, it's availible in the U.S.

In fact someone is selling a 2006 C350 Sport with that same color on the forum: https://mbworld.org/forums/classifieds/168832-fs-2006-c350-sport-sedan-6-spd-manual.html and I'm really thinking about it...
