Although I ordered Palladium Silver, Diamond Silver with Red leather looks way better than White. It's be a different story for CLA which I would go with White, but imho, Silver is better than White for W205.

Should be a good mix of not too light, not too dark.

Diamond silver is just and ugly grey that looks so cheap in my opinion.

C-300
White has grown on me but needs to have a lot of contrast. Dark wheels, black panoroof, tinted windows, etc. It's a little "Jersey"shore-ish but works. Otherwise, white cars have always reminded me of fleet rental cars. Also while not as hard to maintain as black, I think they look dirty quite easily. So again, I prefer some color.

I think the choice of rims and accessory features like C-fiber and night package have a bigger effect on the overall appearance of lighter colored exteriors, especially white. JMO.
