Thanks AMG Style. Im sure Rubenl will agree with me, but the pictures still don't do the color justice. It looks even better in person. Id advise you not to get Granite Grey to keep that colors population down, however if you buy a MB go for the Granite Grey. Honestly I have had at least one compliment in person each day I have had the car. Good luck with your purchase.

Haven't seen that many Granite Greys here in SoCal, so I don't think the colour will be too saturated anytime soon. If you can get that colour, go for it AMG Style!

Looks kinda like my 2003 Blue Water Metallic 530i. Very nice, glad to see that MB is finally adding some decent colors other than the standard Silver, Black and White.

I love Granite Grey! I just got mine last week and I too get at least one compliment a day on the color. It's best in direct sunlight and the pictures just don't do it justice. I had originally ordered pewter and then changed my order and I'm sure glad I did!

It's nice to read about others enjoying their MB's as much as I am. True Story:While at Starbucks this morning, a guy with a paper plated BMW 325i says Damn, I wish I would have got one of those instead as he walks around my car inspecting it. Little things like that just prove I made the right decision in picking my car.

Paper Plates around here mean the cheap flimsy plates with the dealers name on them. In other words the guy was driving a brand new BMW and wished he bought a MB instead.

I get your point now. He just bought his BMW. I feel bad for those 325i guys. :v
