how to find out what exterior color is my car?

I cannot seem to find the answer here with the search button (too many results).

I want to know what color black is my '05 W209. Any idea? Thanks

300E a couple 1994 w124wagon E320 Wagon/,1971MGB Track/Rally, MG Midget Autocross ,2000 E320 wagon.
Look for the

3 digit color code on the metal tag on the radiator support.
Then call the dealer parts dept and ask
if someone can run your vin number it will tell the color name and all options
number might be 040 black
or 197 metallic obs black

listing my VIN? It's no secret. You can go to any vehicle on the street and pull its VIN right off the windshield.

Thanks Wes for the color code.

Thanks UK-C200. I bought it used so it is good to know what features I have and what I don't have. Apparently, I don't have much .
