Thank you, whats funny is the lighter interior was a surprise to us. We bought ours sight unseen, and the only thing the dealer could guarantee at the time was Steel Gray & 5 spoke AMG wheels. We thought we were getting the black interior, not that that is bad we just wanted a lighter color. At any rate when they called us to come get it, and we showed up and the car had light gray interior I was like

Nice combo, the AMG looks good. Congrats!

I believe you bought this at EDH Mercedes correct? Are you from the area too, if so, hello neighbor.

I dropped by the dealer this weekend and saw the Pewter with dark interior, the car def looks good on the exterior. The interior i'm not so sure about, still debating.


Did you get a good deal or MSRP??


this one is listed for $41k, C350 with AMG, xenon and Pana roof.

I'm pretty sure you didn't, I went back to the dealer three times Monday, it did not come in from being transported from their sister dealer in Reno until 6:45, I was on the lot when it showed up 6:57 But I do believe you drove the other one they had in on their lot same color. Our car had exactly the amount of miles from their dealer to EDH plus the seven it said it had before it left.

This color was our first choice, best color combo IMO but we didn't need the 350, Pano-Roof and $41K was out of our price point as we where shopping the Acura TL/ Infiniti G35 range. MSRP is the ticket right now, especially if you want AMG wheels, it's no problem for us though we loved the car we purchased, can't say I ever said that about any previous car-related purchase even when I've paid 2-6% below the invoice.
