New Ride-Cardinal Red

Hi Guys,

I've frequented this forum for the past few years since its full of great info regarding our cars..I just swapped my '12 E350 (palladium) for the '14 model. I was going to pick up the '14 model in Palladium again but I found this car sitting on the lot and had to have it. It's Cardinal Red and I've modified a few things as well. Pics attached

thanks!

Looks awesome to cover chrome pieces...especially on Cardinal Red.

Very nice. I kept my 2014 in Palladium because the Cardinal Red would have clashed with my red Lexus RX.

Very nice color! It was my second choice color behind the Designo Mystic Brown for my upcoming wagon. Congrats and nice mods! Loving the concave rims.

Thumbs up Impressive

Impressive color, with a capital M!

Love how the body color and the taillights match and blend seamlessly!

I've actually never even seen this color and I've visited about 8 dealerships in Southern California including the two largest dealerships here. It would really stand out in the sea of black and silver benzes.

There's a reason why you see black and silver (actually white much more than silver these days) - that's because those are the colors that sell. And there must have been a reason why that car was "sitting on the lot" (and I bet the OP got a great deal on it too).

I remember the 90's... Green / Blue / Red were a lot more common or at least I remember them to be

Gold, is like a killer for resale these days

I wish I was given the color choice. Love the color. Only color allowed was the brown, blue, black and white.

I don't see this color anywhere on the MBUSA website, including any designo colors. Is this new for '15 and the website just isn't updated yet? Was wondering if it is going to be available in the ML series.

I think I saw you driving near the Americana in Glendale. If that was you, it looks so good! It's one of the first times a W212 caught and kept my attention! Love it!!
