Its listed as a 1999 model, so its one of 22 in that color for 1999, would be my guess.

Mine has the black and blue interior. Based on pictures, I didn't think I was going to like it before I got it, but in person it is very subtle. A lot of people don't notice the blue until the second or third time they've been in the car. Its one more thing to make the C43 stand out a little more from the rest of the W202 sedans. It really does look classy in person and I've never had anyone say they didn't like it.

I'd like to see the silver on black and blue combo in person though. I actually think it would look pretty good.

blue interior on a black car makes a lot more sense to me than on a silver?
