Question E500 Appearance Package

I have a quick question, I ordered a 2004 E500 with appearance package. The build date is sometime in Feb. I was wondering does anyone know if the speedometer gauge (dial) white like the E55? Your reply would be greatly appreciated. Thanks

i believe the white dials come only when opting for the sport package.

The 2004 Appearance Package replaces the 2003 Sport Package. All components remain the same (with the exception of the sport badge on the side of the car).

Most people have been getting the white dials with the appearance package. I'll know about mine in about a week or so.

I just took delivery of my E500 with Appearance Package and Premium package a few weeks ago. It came with the white dials, no sport badging on the side.

What color are the dials at night. I'm hoping you are going to tell me they are the cool looking blue color.
