Cappuccino Leather Photos?
I ordered a 2014 C350 sedan with the Cappuccino leather interior.
Other than the photo in the 2013 C-Class brochure, I have not seen nor can any of the three dealers here in Minnesota, provide me with a sample or a larger photo of the leather.
Do any of you have that interior in your vehicle? Could you provide a photo?
The sales manager of the dealer where I purchased the car has requested both a sample and larger photo from MBUSA but, after three weeks, has not been able to get either.
Appreciate any help.

2012 C300 sport
I don't have a photo but I can tell you that it is much lighter in color than the picture on the MB site and and what is in the sales lit. I have a 2012 Sport, Sapphire Grey w/ Cappuccino leather and must admit that I was a little disappointed when it was delivered. Perhaps they were thinking of a Latte instead of a Cappuccino. Seems more like the Almond Beige pictured in the sales brochure.
It wouldn't have been a deal breaker but what I really wanted was a medium grey leather and the Ash was way too light-more like off white than grey.
For what it's worth, the leather is much nicer then what was in my Passat GLX. Just seems more robust as in not as prone the wrinkles. Also for what it's worth, mine came from Germany.

2012 C300 sport
I'll try to take a photo tomorrow and send you a PM if I can figure out how. If not I will post it here. When I ordered mine, the only way it came was with in the Sport and it had black trim. Is that the same for 2014? Are they now built in the US?
As has been pointed out, black looks really nice in a car's interior but does create something akin to a black-hole with respect to light. This was another surprise having never had black components in a car interior. Looking for things in the bin between the seats can a flashlight at times. Here in the often grey and overcast Pacific NW light is a wonderful thing.

The car is scheduled to be built in Germany on June 20th. All the vehicles i have built are red exterior with tan interior. The only exception is my 2011 E350 wagon which is Arctic White with natural beige interior. I offered $4,000 to build a Mars Red but MBUSA would not do it.
I agree, the black interior makes the inside seem smaller, but it is the number one selection for most buyers across all manufacturers.
The problem when ordering a "next years model" is the lack of information or detail about what will be included. The dealership has no idea what is coming
as far as door, floor or dash colors.
This new car is for my wife, she is getting rid of a 2008 335Xi, Red/Tan
When looking for the 2014 C=Class we visited a BMW dealer and they have a new tan leather that looks like carmel. Absolutely beautiful! She wanted that interior more than the car. She is uncertain about the cappuccino but is hoping
it will look better than the pictures.
Appreciate your help in trying to get a few photos.

Shame MB dealers are so lax in obtaining basic sales tools like paint and interior color swatches. In any case, the 2013 C class PDF has photos of the interior that do not match the swatches on another page.
Annexed is a PDF of a W204 interior photo next to its swatch. A huge difference, in my professional opinion as a graphics arts expert. Hope this is of assistance.
BTW my C300 Sport is Arctic white with Beige interior as is your E350 wagon, stays cool in the tropical sunlight.

Kind of looks like slightly reddish beige. May be a totally different color than what is offered here, which is much more red/brown. MB should really try and equate the tonality to an industry-standard Pantone number, and then there is no doubt.
Pewterslk320, NICE PICS!!!!

AcapulcoBill and Pewterslk320 thank you for he photos and input.
pewterslk320, please confirm the spec on your 2013 C350, is it listed as cappuccino in your build sheet? If it is , I really like it. Your photos do not look anything like the MB C-Class brochure.
Appreciate your help.

These are not a bad representation of the color. At least on my Imac. If anything, the leather is just a little bit lighter to the eye. Certainly not darker as in the brochure images.
