2004 Dodge Viper Mamba Edition - White
Real pictures of a new 2006 Mercedes CLS 500 Launch Edition
Here are some actual pictures of a a CLS 500 Lauch Edition. I personally do not like how a CLS looks in Indium Grey and I do not think that it is worth it to pay $8,500 for the Launch Edition Package. However, the interior of the car is to die for. I love everything about it and I would not choose mine in any other way
What do you all think?

2001 SL 500
Nope
I saw one of these at a car show last week, only in black. I think its ugly. Looks like a Jag jumped a Chrysler and this is what turned out.
I thought the interior was very cramped also.

Designo natural oak wood trim launch edition
The pictures do not do justice to the beauty of the matte designo oak trim in the car. It is light and natural and does not have the orange in it that the photo shows. It is also only available on the launch edition so it can not be special ordered as an option. Black floor mats look awesome in this car.
I just brought the launch edition home and I love the indium grey if for no other reason, it is unique. No other MB has this color and I think there will be more than enough black and silver CLS cars out there in a couple of months. Indium is elegant...the black and silver lend themselves to a sportier appearance in my opinion. I think the 7 spokes are kind of cool too because I have seen so many 5 spoke AMG style wheels. They cost an extra $480 and are available as an option.
Just my opinion.
The car drives like a dream.

Just purchased a CLS Launch edition have a question.
I have a 2006 CLS 500 launch it has 132,000 miles on it very well taken care of trying to gauge the value of this car. Not selling just want to know the value.
