Anyone have Capri Blue Metallic?

I think it looks classy and different. Getting it with natural beige on my 2011 E5504.
Do not see it on too many W212s or 221s. I think I see it mainly in CLKs

It definitely will get you noticed, I saw one at my local dealer and had to do a second take.

For me, down, it was a little too light, like a pastel blue for me. Too close to the color of these smiles -

I have almond inside with black ash. There are times the Capri Blue looks black. Obviously it depends on the lighting. I have had people tell me, I thought your car was black. Then there are the times it does not look black. This is what I wanted. In my neighborhood there are many cars black or white. I wanted a different color. I wax my car alot, love looking at the shine!!!!!

Capri Blue is dark, not anything close to those emoticons.

In fact, in low light, it looks black

The Capri Blue is real nice. I have an indium grey e550 that I love, a less traveled color. I almost bought a slightly used 2010 jade green metallic e350. Very rare color. It almost looked black in some light. The nicest green that I've ever seen. In the end, fell in love with the indium grey and passed. Regards. Ned.
