The darker blue that was available only on the comp-package E46 M3's was/is nice also... forget what it was called. LSB is nice, but pretty "in-your-face" which might get old, IDK.
EDIT: Interlagos Blue.

my designo green color C32!
lol I'm with moose on this one. I want to say it's just the Citron Green. the rest of the world was pretty much able to order any color you want with extra $$. I've seen some good photos of metallic yellow, orange, etc on C32 and C55s.
what is the paint code on the door?
either way, cool color. My tolerance for weird color is very high since I'm one of those few people that thinks Phoenix Yellow on E46 M3 is one of the best color. I would gunmetal the wheel color instead tho. green wheel = fail on any car.

Already Superstar answered your question in the first page: (This unique color is a (024U -DESIGNO-LIGHT GREEN) custom made by DESIGNO and definitely not the regular Citron Green Metallic. This paint was special ordered back in 2002, and it added more than $8000 to the price tag for this custom paint alone! As far as I know, this the only C32 on the entire plant with this rare color... )
About wheel color , I am in the process of changing it .

Saam55, welkommen to the forum mate! I am not a huge fan of green cars that are not British Racing Green, however, that said, the custom green on your AMG looks awesome and I would guess that you have the only Green C32 in the world. Afterall, 1/2 of all MB's on average are Silver, another 25% are Black and no disrespect to those who follow the herd, but I love to have cars that are "not" the expected color. My C32 is red and quite rare but yours trumps that for certain. The other 25% were painted all the other colors such as white, red, tectite and blue or gold. I say you got a keeper. Have fun with it.

No doubt that marble give amazing veiw to any place
but in my opinine it shouldn't be in a gas station ground , marbles absorbs heat easily, that makes the exposed ground temp. very high especially during day time on this time of year, where temp. is more than 110f in this area ..
another problem that the marble ground is so smooth that makes the tires spin easily from any touch..

I DON'T COME HERE ANYMORE
Jesus wasnt around when there was gas stations-but if he was-I bet he would pimp a Hummer. on 93oct too. Prob Designo Green or similar. Def not PHX yellow (insert vomiting smiley thing here) or any BMW for that matter-(dont you remember, they killed all the Jews over there

I dont think thats marble, prob granite bc it is more dense and able to take the weight of the vehicles. I would imagine you would have to compact that soil very tightly. But would i know I'm just an interior decorator.
Samm are you an engineer over there in RSA? Do you work there or a contractor?

I dont think Marble would absorb any more heat than black top or brick pavers. Concrete is the way to go when paving a gas station.
