dont worry about it...i ordered my car with the grey/black leather. in my five month wait, I kept thinking that I would regret it, wishing I had chosen all black...in the end I was happy that I stuck to my original, gut feeling.

i actually think the opposite to most: the two-tone grey black looks sportier to me than all black.
the grey seats sitting on black floors looks mighty sporty to me....add the leather interior and the stitching adds even more to the sportiness.
i have the grey/black leather interior with pano...man when i open up the pano...it looks like summer inside my car!!! (oh, thats a good thing lol)
the idea behind the pano was to provide an "airy" feeling inside the car...with an all black interior, it might make it look a bit claustrophobic.
in the end, i enjoy my grey/black interior...and have no regrets.

I used to drive an RX330 that was silver and two-tone interior, black/grey. It's clean but kind of dull-looking. I think that was exacerbated by the fact that the outside color is the same as the inside.
I hope Mercedes offers the brown/beige option, or even a black/beige, on future sport models. The carpets are also hard to clean, although I assume that the carpets are black on all sport models.
