Here's a visual comparison of Steel Grey and Selenite Grey; selenite is much lighter. I agree Steel would have been great for the C coupe: http://www.benzblogger.com/2015/08/f...nz-paints.html

Is there any way a dealer can custom order active LEDs to be put on a car without that stupid package? Can't they order it as a stand alone option as it was for the c450???? I'm pissed

This thread has some great pics of Selenite on the new 63 Coupes. Looks pretty damn solid.

You'll never need driver's assistance until one moment when you really need it. At that time, you will be glad you have it.
DA package is what $2-3k?
I once was in a serious car accident that the modern MB DA package may have prevented. The 48hr stay in the ICU was covered by insurance. The cost was over $40,000 in 1998 dollars. I had no surgery required and only minimal physician follow up. Being a 20yo at the time, some broken ribs and a contused lung only took a few weeks to recover from. It could have been much worse.
Still think it's a bad investment?

Would like comments on my previous question about the gloss black spoiler lip - just don't see how it "fits" with certain colors -the only combo I like is metallic black with carbon fiber - but certainly adds (unnecessary) cost. On other subject - did see the blue on a dreary day with clumsy 18" wheels- but wise to see it first - plenty of C300's starting to show up. On a sunny day - will look better - but as someone stated - not outstanding if you wish to be different - as the BMW Estoril blue

Yup, found that way back when I was searching for Steel Grey pics during my C450 wait. I like Steel and Selenite, back then I preferred Selenite after seeing it on some AMG GTs, now they are both colors I really like.
This thread has some great pics of Selenite on the new 63 Coupes. Looks pretty damn solid.

Matte finish paint adds 10hp to an AMG car, FACT!

I believe it's only available on the Edition 1s in the US from the order guides I've seen, but not 100%. I do know the matte paint is a beast to keep clean which would make me shy away from it...plus it kind of dulls the lines out a bit.

I saw a Selenite Coupe in the flesh a couple months ago. They were corporate cars just visiting area dealerships. It sort of splits the difference between the old gray and Palladium. Rich looking color. Very elegant.

Pics of it on the 63 Coupe look outstanding, great color and an awesome shine to it. JPMBenz, who generally knows his stuff, said it reminded him a lot of the old Designo Graphite which was a great color IMO.

AMG board is saying AMG had said the 63 Coupe will have an improved exhaust note over the Sedan. Naturally this makes me curious if that same will trickle down to the C43s or not...probably won't know for a few months at this rate, but, it's something else to look forward to finding out.

I could have sworn I've seen this noted in several places - but I cannot find. Could I be wrong with this - and its just the side mirror caps I've viewed as being gloss black and "assumed" the spoiler was the same? The only pics I see now have carbon on both - the Geneva Auto Show had the car in metallic black with carbon and it looked fantastic (in pics) , NY Show also had car in white with all carbon. Where have you seen matching?Anyway to find out specifically? I'm happy to be wrong.
