2003 CL55
Color is obviously very subjective. An Alabaster White/Java CL Sport on the road is a distinctive car and the contours of the body are more distinctive than on dark color CL's. The white is offset nicely by the phenominal wheel well cutouts and the dark panels in the front Sport bumper. Brilliant Silver is also a terrific color for the CL, but there are a quite a few Brilliant Silver MBs of all models on the road, especially the CL. I have been considering what my 03 CL 55 will be and so far, I am going to stay with Alabaster White/Java. Capri Blue/Java is also attractive, but as I said, dark colors do not show the body countours as well as light. If they offered the new Diamond Silver, as they do on the SL, which is the color that we ordered for my wife's SL, I might go with it, but so far as I know, it will not be offered in the US.
