I was thinking Granite Gray. I like it a lot. But the pictures I can find of it shows like a blueish tint to the color? Does anyone have pictures that are correctly represented?

I actually just saw a silver one... I was completely unimpressed! It blended in, and I don't like the color itself either. I also have seen a black one, but it doesn't show off the subtle lines very well. I don't know... I was misconceived because silver looks so HOT in all the pictures, but in real life, it sucks. Ugh...

in your Mom's car
Man o' man..i lovedddd that color on my e-class. I think it had metallic flakes in the paint thats why it sparked better than the flat black benzs. What I learned tho is that darker colored cars are better on the west coast were you do not have to worry about too much weather damage and ROCKCHIPS from the damn roads
. If you do not know what rockchips are..its basically pieces of the road being kicked by cars in front of you as you are driving causing a whole bunch of "buckshot" paint chips in your front bumper. And it's nothing you can do about it
. In that case white is best color, because it hides these issues pretty good.

I've got one and don't have any rock chips on my front bumper.
Silver is best.

That's not bad, I actually really like it. But, it looks kind of like an old person's color like tan or green etc. Maroon... I'd have to think about that.

Nope, I have the clear bra and the side skirt "bras". The bra did a good job of minimizing damage to the hood, but the bumper takes the brunt of the hits it seems like it. I'll take a picture when I get a chance.

Most of the benz colors for the CLS are "old person's color". I wish they made more exotic colors instead of all subtle.
