Thanks again as i would have been really annoyed if I settled on the birdseye maple and found out AFTER the fact that I could have had my first choice.

BTW, I did try to build Sports with Burl on the MB site, but it wouldn't let me. Maybe the dealers can do an override when they order the car.
My dealer had to look around but he found an E350 Sport, Pewter with Cashmere and Burl at another dealer. It also has iPod integration kit and headlamp washing system. Dealers traded and I now have the color combination I wanted. I didn't really want the Sport but it seems that's all they're building since it's a no-charge option. Couldn't find one in that color combination that was not Sport.

According to MB, the SPORT also has a sport tuned suspension, so there is a factor other than aesthetics involved when choosing bet. sport or non-sport. (still can't bel. its a $0 option - that is sweet)!
