Question Colour Choice!

Which colour would you choose if you wanted to hide dirt and scratches, but still wanted the car to look classy and attention grabbing? I have seen the Beige CLK and was very impressed, but would like to hear some oppinions from those of you who have actually seen a Pewter (cubanite silver) CLK. Which of the two do you think is the most eye catching and classy, but also hides dirt the best?

The interior colour will now almost defnitely be black, with the light wood trim.

thanks

the best is no doubt the brilliant silver

silver and black is the best color...the black is better
but silver has a lot of advantages
it hides dirt better

and it looks cool too

Thanks, but our S-class is brilliant silver, so we werent really interested in that colour, leaving only pewter and travertine beige as the light colours left. Dark colours look dirty quickl.

Sorry to bug you guys again but...

After seeing vivianloves pictures of the CLK500, i just cant get over how beutiful the stone interior is. I was wodering how well does this go with the pewter exterior, because the Brochure only says its 'possible' not 'recommened.' Any ideas?

thanks

CLK320 (w209)
how about red

I have Stone interior, and it’s beautiful, but I don’t think it will go well with any grayish color.

How about metallic red. I found that the middle colors hides dirt well, most of them. Mine is black. clearly the worst of hiding dirt.

Metallic red and stone interior would be stunning…….but color choices are very personal.

Cheers

I would go with metallic red too but if you are going to choose but if you are only going to choose between your two choices then I would go with beige for two reasons:
1) It is totally an underated colour and looks beautiful in person.
2)and your new CLK will look different to every tom dick and harrys that that got the pewter colour.

You'll be very happy.
