Charge for Palladium Silver - $720?!?
I just received my MSRP print out from the dealer and they are charging me $720 for Palladium Silver. I thought Palladium silver was one of the colors that didn't have a charge? Is there anyone out there with a Palladium Silver C63 that can verify for me? Please and thank you.

Eric

What's the story with that? I find it hard to believe that the cost of the paint is that much - and if it is, how come only a handful of manufacturers upcharge for it? Always bugged me. If anyone knows - please share.
