Factory tinted windows????

Am I seeing correctly? There seems to be a color difference on the side windows compared to the winshield. So in a sense ..the side windows are factory slightly tinted already???
Sit inside the car and look out on a bright suuny day....you will see it.

Yes. They are either a blue or green tint.

The avantgarde model was delivered with a light blue tint all round as standard (even the windshield). classic, sport and elegance I don't know about, but at least you could get it as an option.

OK..My eye sight is still good...mine is greenish color..

If only MB tint it slightly darker....that way people would not have to worry about aftermarket tint and the police can't give us tickets since it comes factory like that.
