Color question about CL 63

Hello, everyone:

Despite my previous post about jumping ship, I'm still on board and likely to stay that way. Afyer waiting for over two years, I can't give up now. My question is about color availability. On the German site www.mercedes.com one can build a CL 63, and one of the color choices is Smaragdschwarz metallic. This color doesn't seem to be available in the US version of the site, and I'm wondering if this is the Black Opal of years past. The name translates to "emerald black," which hints at that possibility. Please help if you can. Thanks.

Yes, Black Opal = Smaragdschwarz = paint code 189.

It is my understanding that Black Opal will be dropped worldwide for MY08. Therefore, MBUSA did not offer it for MY07 in anticipation of this change.

Cool Good thinking, stick with the CL

You can't go wrong with the new CL. I believe you are making the right choice by getting it. I absolutely love my CL 550 Designo so I can't even imagine the immense pleasure of driving a CL 63. You won't be dissapointed that's for sure.
