I think that the name is majestic black. I am considering very seriously buying one 63 in that color. The diamond white is pretty too.
Any one have seen in person the first designo color ?

Magnetite Black is a new (US) color for 2011 models and is very similar to Obsidian Black. Majestic Black has a slight blue tint.

My CL63 is majetic black, and I think it's an absolutely beautiful color. At night it looks black, but when the light hits it, it shines blue. Stunning for the CL. I hope it sticks around, as I'm very partial to this color. My previous car, the S430, was Obsidian Black. It was lighter and bluer than the majestic black, but it suited the W221 lines and was also quite beautiful. Although I was disappointed when it was discontinued, I was very pleased with its replacement. The darker majestic black suits the CL's body lines very nicely, and adds an air of elegance to an already stately car.

As my good friend, MBZFAN55, pointed out, I made a mistake in the above post. I meant to say my old S430 was Black Opal not Obsidian Black. The Black Opal had a blue color, to which I am partial. My old GL 450 Premier was Obsidian Black, a lovely metallic black. Sorry for the error.

@EVO II, and myself,

I think its the Flint Grey, but not sure to be honest.

A black with the Designo Black and White interior would look instantly amazing, although, beige/cream interiors are quite alright for keeping in top shape, not too sure about the white though

Thanks. I actually have one obsidian black, but I think that I would like something lighter. That flint grey is stunning.

I've ordered too (S63) with November delivery also but now I am having second thoughts.
With all the options ordered (Designo in & out,etc) it will list in mid $170k,awfully close to S65.
The latter is in the last year of production and is the last real V12,with proven drivetrain,easily modified.
Car is to be my daily driver so I am a bit concerned with the reliability of a new car (63) vs the 65.
Talked to Bob Brady from Renntech and he would rather have the 65.
What say you?

Absent - We've traded posts in the past on the never ending S63/65 discussion/debate. I have an S63 on order for October delivery and the new engine and MCT trans sealed the deal for me. My car will be a daily driver and "new car reliability" will be a non issue based on what MB has been producing in the past 3 years, particularly engines. I would not hesitate to be the first on the block with the S63 5.5TT as I was with my CL63 6.2. Have some fun and enjoy the blipping transmission!

I know the new S63 makes the most sense at this point,it's all Bob Brady's fault with his talk of easy 700+ mod for the S65 that turns my brain into a mush.
Also,the fact that these V12s are going to be gone,most likely forever,that makes that engine so tempting.

I just am so sick of our 5 speeds. I get why they use um as they are bullet proof, but....

That 7 Speed MCT sure is gonna feel amazing compared to the 722.6 slushers.

Obviously my sig gives away that I am a bit biased.
