Custom order one. That way you can it outfitted exactly the way you want. That's what I did and I am very happy with the way it worked out. The Capri Blue with Cashmere that I got is also very rare. It only took about 10 weeks to get it.

Silver with beige is an odd combination, as the colors don't flow well. BMW tried that with the E46 and they sold a ton of them below MSRP.

Agreed, very odd color combination. I'm sure you can get it custom done though, just don't know how it'd turn out

Mine is iridium silver with ash leather. Awesome color combo lots of color variety. The dash is black leather, but everything else is a darker grey, and the wood is the high gloss laurel, that has a nice bright color in sun light.

I really wanted a dark car with the tan/cashmere interior but after seeing what my wife and daughter did to my black/cashmere Escalade I decided on a black interior. Yea, it does not show off all of the detail of the beautiful interior as well but it does not show the dirt and stains.

If I were you and you are ok with a used car I'd buy the exterior color you want and have a good interior guy change out the leather and carpet and have something custom.

+10000. I have beige and although I absolutely love it because its bright and shows off the interior perfectly its a pain when it comes to keeping clean. Scuff marks everywhere, any little spec of dirt can be seen 10 fold. Not a fan of black/dark interiors but I have seen Maseratis' with dark peanut butter or deep red interiors and love those. Hopefully benz has that as option in future.
