color

I think it is more important to get what you want as long as you can afford it.............
My wife drive's a black 2002 C240 and yes it is pretty...........

I work just as hard to make sure my Amythist C320 shines just as much as her black does.
I will admit I would have got my car in black which was my first choice. But I found out that Amythist, and bordoux were not as popular thus I was able to get a great deal on my C320..........

Bottom line..........it is hard to make payments on something you are unhappy with........so make a good choice or each month you will be pissed.......................::

thats why if i got a sedan it would have been amythist. why be just another face in the crowd.
and i agree go with what you want. i have no regrets and wouldnt have mine any other color. not only do i like my color, but i like it even more that it is uncommon and stands out.

Diamond Black - all the good things that black has but super exclusive and fewer swirls since metallic.

You guys have to remember that on the 05 it should be coming with nano paint as well, that will help out on the dings and scratches part of it, now just keep salt, dust, and whatever else off

Yeap, I guess if (from some other post I just saw) your car paint # starts with a C you have nano-paint.

And yes it does resist against scratches, dings, whatever...the article said 40% more resistant

ya pur efru nano comment, looking forward to feedback after a while. $650 (2002my) was enough for me to go with alabaster white, still looks good, especially without C7; the black door handles help break up the visual mass off the profile. If I was goiung to pony up for $ on paint I'd go for the least common color, a Jaeger for citron. Absent cost and frequency, the deep red metallic is my favorite. Another plus for non-metalllic is post wreck paint matching, no wrecks yet though.
