What color is your antifreeze?

I was checking my coolant level this morning and noticed the coolant was blue in color much like my bmw. However I read online that MB antifreeze is supposed to be orange in color. I bought the car CPO last month from a MB dealer why would they CPO a car with unapproved coolant?
