My dealer has a C300 Luxury in the new color Sand Beige with a Beige tex interior. Very classy.

That color is special to the luxury version. Can't get a sport in that color.

no new love for the sports version?

how about that dark red color MB-tex for sports! That's one hot color, BMW has something similar, non-US c-class has it... MB marketing, are you listening?

That Sport love would be the Palladium Silver that all demo's showed up with....

that should be consider criminal at this point.

You can get any color you want for an extra $1400 bucks. I think the code is P040 or something along those lines.

Not true for new C classes. No special orders are being taken at this time.


As for Sand Beige, its exclusive to the Lux version as Mars Red is only available on the Sports version, so it equals out I guess.

not really, the lux version gets cashmere interior color... c'mon MB, where is that cognac brown for US version c-class!

what could of been...

any spy shots you can post up?

its there in www.mbusa.com go to build ur own c-class, you can choose cashmere interior... and that sand beige exterior...

I haven't seen a Pewter silver yet for a W204.
I'm dying to see one, as it was my second color choice. I've seen it on many S-class, CL-class, SL-class, and SLK-class and it is a very timeless and rich looking silver (I prefer a warmer looking silver than a bluish looking silver).

I would definately pay a premium for the Cognac brown interior. I'm not a fan of the typical beige interiors you see everywhere. It gets dirty and doesn't look rich enough. The Cognac interior is beautiful, unique and looks similar to the rare and stunning Mercedes Designo Brown interior.

Pewter silver is called cubanite silver in Europe and Canada - it is the colour I have. My previous car was a Volvo VC70 in silver and I wanted something a little different. I think pewter (cubanite) looks great, it takes on a slight golden hue in sun. There have been a few photos posted in threads, here is one:

Saw the Sand Beige on an ML this past weekend and I must admit its actually a nice looking color. It was much much much darker than the pictures of the C, the C class pictures I've been seeing on the website make it look almost like the Desert Silver of the past models. If its the same as the ML it will be darker and more richer, believe it or not it stands out in a lot full of other Benz's.
