aventurine orange metallic paint
At mercedes-benz.com, the available colors for the c-coupe include several that MBUSA and my local dealer have never heard of. Presumably they are euro and/or Japan colors. So, 2 questions:
Anybody got a pic of a coupe ( or other model ) in aventurine orange?
Is there anyway to get those colors here?
Thanks.

Adventure in Orange = Paprika
The color you are looking for here in the US is PAPRIKA. Beautiful on the coupe and great in the sunlight with all the different hues. The color you refer to, Advendure in Orange, is what this color is called in Europe. If you check the paint color codes, you will se that they are identical....
Other benefit of this color, is that you won't see very many on the road -- but you will see heads snap when you drive by....

What can I say -- different countries -- different color descriptions. The paint codes are identical. Sorry if that's not enough info, but all I can offer....
