Question From Down Under

Well my mum just ordered a CLK240. It should arrive Easter at the latest...........what a long wait hey. Anyway the colour combination is travertine beige with a pebble beige interior (i think called stone in the US). A friend who works at mercedes said that reflection with the light interiors is so bad that sometimes you can have trouble looking through the side mirrors to see cars behind. I was wondering if this has been a problem for any of you guys. Also i was wodering how does the black interior look with the gold exterior, because this is a possble alternative we are considering.

Finally, on my dads S-class the alloy wheels get extremely dirty very easily, more so than alloys on our other non MB cars. Is there are particular reason for this, and how can we overcome this problem.

Other than that, i've been having a little browse around the place, and this forum is great.

Thankyou for you help

One last question. At this point the car is going to be fitted with 17 inch alloys and the sports suspension. I was wondering how much does this suspension effect ride quality, and how does the vehicle look with 17inch wheels without the sports suspension.

thanks
