Colors on 2003 E Class

Those of you who have received 2003 E Class brouchures can you advise what the new blue color "Platinum Blue" #353 looks like. Is it similar to any current color on other Mercedes models. Also what is its European equivalent which should have the same number?

oops, i have aol, so its slow, and i only saw your printing, not the pic, mb, that color is wedgewood, it looks very very nice, but the thing is, no colors are available with that, so you have to pay a lot extra to get any interior color to get that. It is wierd, every car thjat comes to the states will probably be all metallic, because only 3 colors are non-matallic..Alabaster white, midnight blue, and just plain old black.. And no offense, but all three colors are kind of icky looking, but if you keep you car very cleen , alabaster white i think would look nice. But stone leather is so nice looking, that is the one i got with obsidian black If i wanna get the car before the end of the year, i guess i have to like it
