and calcite white color?
I think the new CLS key is probably the same one as in the new GL and S class.

Forget about it, the dealer said there is no such thing is Black Bird's eye maple for the 2007 CLS not even for the AMG63... as for the new white, they have no clue neither.

Your dealer is a meathead.

I wished MB would release some pics too.

No doubt, and they are one of the biggest dealerships in the area.

If you scroll down page 1 of the link to design, it mentions the wood option Black/maple for the 2007 CLS

Right, but neither my dealership or anyone has heard of or seen the black bird's eye maple.

The link is the MBUK site which features the maple/black there is someway that you can configure a car that should show the colour. Its on the trim and designo bits.
The UK CLS brochure shows good pictures of the maple/black on pages 28 to 30, all you need is that brochure, it may be possible to order one from the link, just say you are coming to the UK to buy your car (at twice the price of the US)

Thanks...
So, it seems like the Black Bird's Eye Maple could be just a Euro option, doesn't apply to US orders.

The brochure and pictures are part of the 2006 CLS, I would not swear but the 2007 details seem to indicate that it is may not just be a designo feature, I may be wrong. Do you not have the facility to email MBUSA and ask the question direct to them, the black maple really looks the business and knowing american tastes it is something that would go down well over there. I will see if I can get a good picture for you even if I have to take it myself at a dealer with a suitable car, I believe the finish is on more than the CLS.

That picture is of piano black trim - completely different from black eye maple!

We want pics of the wood, not some piano wannabe dashboard!

We just picked up a 06 E500 (saturday) with the sport pkg and it comes with the Black Birdseye Maple. It's Black with a very dark blueish color running through it.
My wife is out in the car right now but when she gets back i'll try and take some pictures of it ( although it's dark here now).

This purchase was to keep my wife out of the CLS!
