My boss' car was flooded during Hurricane Harvey. It was a limited edition olive green (?) E 550 convertible, 2012. Looking for another one, supposedly only about 1k were made. Anyone know where to look? I've checked the dealer where he bought it, they were not very helpful, just wanted him to come in to get something else. He really wants this car.
its a 2012, isn't that a 2017ish color? Sorry for being so vague, no pics, most everything in the house was destroyed. Ive called the dealer,looking for the vin, waiting for a call back, but it was some limited color for the 2011-12 year, so Im being told. It's like a light olive green, almost army green/gray color.
I haven’t seen anything like that around but if he can’t find what he is looking for I have a 19,000 mile black/red 2013 E550 cabriolet I would sell. CPO unlimited mile warranty through January 2020. I’m in the Houston area but this car was high and dry in my garage during the storm.
I know the color you're referring to; it is sometimes referred to as Olivine Green, other times Olivine Gray:
I searched high and low for it, all across the country, when I was shopping for my car. On a trip to New York, I visited Mercedes-Benz of Manhattan and explained what I was looking for. The salesperson said simply, "You're not going to find that". He was right; I didn't.

THAT'S IT!. but he want's convertible. Was a present for the wife. Don't think he will find it either. Greenway Mercedes here in Houston said they had two of them when they were new, not going to find one anytime soon. Thanks, that's the color....

Reason: add info, this is the color and car
I don't believe the color on the coupe is the same. There were a limited number of special edition E550 convertibles produced in MY12. They all were equipped the same way in a color unique to that particular model. They were/are pretty hard to come by. I have an acquaintance that has one that he keeps in Fla. I'm not sure what the mileage is or if he would be willing to part with it. I'll ask to see if he has an interest and let you know. They are very attractive units.
That shade of green doesn't look anything remotely like "olive".
For some reason Olivine Green has been in my head since the CLK was introduced in '98. It seems the color I captured is actually calledmineral green metallic. apologies

That sounds like a bit more accurate description of the color.

Will put this up for sale next month, April '23, when it comes out of storage.
