What Color is this?

The only thing I haven't made a final decision on for my car is the color, do I go diamond or polar white?

If this car is Diamond then I am sold, but I really can't tell.

Thoughts??

That looks like polar white to me. Diamond White almost has a slight yellowish hue to it while being metallic. That car looks white white to me. :dunno:

Looks like polar white to me. Diamond white has a pearl clear coat which gives it more of a cream look.

I thought this would be easy but it isn't because the weather conditions are overcast and the car is wet. I would not be surprised if it was Diamond which looks like Polar in low light conditions. Good overview of the car though....

I'll have to view this again on my better home computer monitor for a better look.

One thing I've noticed though regarding diamond white over the years it seems to be brighter or more whiter if that makes sense with each newer model release, my diamond white C204 is definitely whiter than an older model E Class my friend has which is also in diamond white, the older diamond white cars look almost exactly the same white colour wise as the MB calcite white colour...
