What colour is this?

What colorr is this? Is it one of the silvers (it looks matte in the pictures). Also does that look like it's lowered on springs or is it lowered? And are those just stock 19s painted black?

It's definitely matte but it's hard to say whether it's vinyl or paint.
The wheels are OEM black multispokes with a polished lip.
The front lip is off eBay.
The car is lowered either on H&R spings or coilovers.

That's a lowered Affalterbach Edition Car...and the paint is factory Magno Allanite Grey paint



More info about it below....several members here have them

http://www.autoblog.com/2011/01/14/m...on-for-canada/

Dubbed the Affalterbach Edition (it's named after the German town in which AMG's skunkworks reside), this C63 wears a unique Magno Allanite Grey paint that is accented with red brake calipers, 19-inch black alloy wheels, carbon fiber mirror shells and a subtle lip spoiler. No tweaks have been made to the C63's powertrain, but the Affalterbach edition comes standard with the normally optional AMG Performance Package, meaning there's 481 horsepower and 443 pound-feet of torque on tap. Sprints to 62 miles per hour will be accomplished in a tidy 4.4 seconds.

Inside, the Affalterbach treatment includes things like AMG sport seats wrapped in Nappa leather, red contrast stitching, carbon fiber trim, and special edition logos placed throughout the cabin. Only 30 units will be sold in the Great White North, starting from $81,500 Canadian when it goes on sale in the spring. Follow the jump for Mercedes-Benz's official release.

it doesn't really match any of the above suggestions. i entered the picture into that google search thing hoping i'd find some more info on it and just found another pic . could it possibly be magno grey or one of the other two silvers with that premier satin guard full wrap stuff? i've been googling it and it looks so nice on silver - saw a silver zr1 with it on.

callmiro is correct. I took that picture last year during our Montreal Tune trip. Its a Magno Allanite Grey Affalterbach Edition that belongs to one of our customers. The gentleman in the photo is my Partner Mike's Father In Law from Seoul

Awesome stance.....love the whole look of it.....Barry, are those coil-overs....looks lower than if it had springs.

Magno Allanite Grey is pretty much Matte Paladium Silver with some metallic in it....awesome colour in person

Matte Paladium as a factory colour is Magno Alanite.

Magno was available on '11 Afalterbach Edtion cars (there was only 25-30 of those sold)

Magno Alanite was also available as a Designo colour for 2012 Edtion 1's...and could be ordered as a Designo colour

Use the search tool up top and search "magno" in the C63 forums and you'll get all the info you need
