Anyone have a Pewter W203?

Does anyone on this board by chance have a Pewter C-class sedan? I've been really looking at this color for a while now and can't find any pics of it on a C sedan...all of the other pics are of CLK, SL etc.

It looks like a gorgeous color but I'm a little concerned with the whole color change to gold during sunlight...

Any pics of a C sedan during the night and day would be much appreciated

There are few owners here that have Pewter. Check the picture thread since attaching pics right now is close to impossible.

I have seen Pewter at night and it looks pretty much like Brilliant Silver(Best color btw ). During the daytime with no sun it looks Great! But when in full sunlight it looks Horrible since it resembles that Desert Silver goldish color the most disgusting color ever created.

Thats being said. I think Tectite Grey is a better alternative! Granite Grey also looks good. I have never seen that on the road yet though.

I would get tectite grey but its not available on C class anymore...or at least not on a c230k.

What I'm going for is the pictures mbphreak has here at this thread..

That color and the xenon's is drop dead gorgeous. Is his car pewter?

But your right Noble the car looks like crap during full sunlight, I saw a pic of Franco's coupe during the day and almost wretched.

One more quick question...whats the difference between the HID kit that mercedes puts on and euro HID's?

Thanks again.
