Well of course I'm going to say Iridium Silver since that's what I went with. I ended up not going black, actually Obsidion Black because for some reason I don't think it is as striking on the C63 as say the E55/63 or CLS55/63. I can't quite pin point why, but I think it is all the chrome bits that seem to stand out more, and the C63 attributes (ie. diffuser, vents, flares) less. But it seems a lot of members here went black, so I'm in the minority

I'm bias of course.. but the standard black..
When its clean the black is as deep as expensive lacquer.

Pick up a bottle of Griots 'speed shine', Fast & easy way to clean/shine car between washes

Well, thanks JohnAMG. That's what I went with (Mars Red with Sahara interior and black maple).

I think ALL the colors look really good, but most MB's are silver/white/black, so I thought the "sportiest" MB should be a sports car color combined with the red being more rare... I want to see the other rare colors (Barola Red, Capri Blue, etc.)

Ok, so what is the difference between iridium silver and palladium silver as far as chrome and vents standing out in your opinion? I am probably picking between the two colors as I don't have time to keep a black colored car clean!

I've seen ALL of the colors and they ALL look good! It all boils down to personal preference. I chose Capri Blue because it was different and my favorite color is blue.
