E550 Coupe
E550 Color, need help!
Hey everyone, new guy here.. I am getting the e550 coupe any day now but haven't because I am confused on which color to get. I'm stuck between black and olive grey (the limited launch edition color). I like the limited launch edition because its unique and the interior is awesome... but then again, you can never go wrong with black on black. Attached pic of the olive grey, let me know what you guys think. Thanks!

Yeah, depending on the lighting it can look a little too green.. I have been trying to find a black coupe with the natural beige, but no luck.. most of them at the dealers had the light almond beige which is too plain for me.

Go with Olive Grey. You'll have a unique car with that color that stands out from the rest. Plenty of Black, Silver or White coupes on the road today (at least in the NE where I am).

2012 E550 Cab
The green, a few years back, was a launch edition color but is now reissued as a standard color, I believe. Having the same issues trying to decide on colors, am ordering a cab 550 this weekend. Considering palladium, natural/black, black. Any color combination suggestions for a classy looking cab? TIA

I like the olive gray or black exterior the best... looks great on the 550. for olive gray, the natural beige two tone looks best and matches well... for black, the almond two tone looks nice and classy, especially with the ash trim. Other than that, you can always get black on black, which is always nice.. but IMO not as nice or unique as the two tone interiors.
