Decision!!!!!

I ordered a 2003 E500 Obsidian Black / Charcoal and it'll be coming in late July, but dealer just called me and said they had a regular Black / Charcoal with very similar options that I ordered...
I want a really dark dark black silky look and I don't know which looks better, Obsidian Black or Black... would the obsidian black be worth the 1 month wait? If I get the Black, I'm gonna go buy it tonight... I think the Black is darker than Obs. Black.. Can you guys give me some opinions on the colors? Which looks darker/better during the day and night? I haven't seen any Obs. Black E500 with Sport Package yet...

Wait the month. Do a side-by-side comparison for yourself and then decide. If you don't, you'll always be questioning your snap decision . . .

P.S. I have Black/Charcoal Sport and love it.
