Exterior color for macchiato beige/yacht blue interior
I’ve settled on macchiato beight/yacht blue interior. Love the blue accents since that is an unusual interior color.
So, I’m trying to decide on the exterior color. Originally, I wanted Cardinal red but then figured with the blue that might be a little odd/inadvertently patriotic..
So I’m down to:
(1) Lunar Blue: an obvious choice but not my favorite since it is nearly black
(2) Iridium Silver: your basic silver - a safe choice
(3) Diamond Silver: appears to be a light blue-silver based on pictures (no examples available at my dealer)
(4) Selenite Grey: dark grey - usually my go-to color for cars.
(5) designo White: probably safest choice, but white has never been at the top of the color choices and it’s $1500...
So, I think my top two are Selenite Grey and Diamond Silver. I realize color selection is purely personal preference, but curious to hear comments.

We just got a Selenite gray with the beige/blue interior on our E450 coupe and love it. I feel this combo is very low-key on the outside and quite regal on the inside. These colors are also very unisex IMO, so everyone in the family is happy to drive it.

I agree with ggoncruz about the Lunar (Lunatic) Blue Metallic, You have to see it in person. It reallly changes with the light. I drove to the two dealers in Las Vegas (100 miles) three times when we were deciding on what color to order. I liked the Metallic Green, Iridium Silver, and basic white to go with the MacchiatoBeige/Yacht Blue interior. When I saw the Lunar Blue, I was sold. I get many compliments on the color combination. The darkness of the color does show the road dust, but that's why God made the California Duster. I use it often between washes.

Why not consider Silver Dune Metallic? I have it and it's a stunner!!! Gets comments everywhere I go. I get, "OMG, I didn't know Mercedes made that color".

I had a c350 with diamond silver outside and cappuccino inside and really liked the unusual combo . The diamond silver definitely has a blue tinge which makes the regular silver look a little dull in comparison . Got many compliments , but not everyone's choice .
