The positive feedback has provided a degree of comfort that I did not make a gross error. It may result in a lower resale value in 7-8 years, but that is a "price" I am willing to pay for something a little out of the ordinary.

All kidding aside, I would take all the free advice I can get on any decision. I think you made a good choice and in 7 or 8 years, the color will have a negligible effect on resale price.

I think the color combination will be awesome - congratulations! My next Mercedes will definitely be Bordeaux Red, probably with the Stone interior as I've learned to live with the light color and the maintenance.
