Verde Silver owners

Hello,

For those who got the Verde Silver. How are you liking the color? Did you pick that color without seeing it in person? Any regrets? I am deciding between Cirrus (currently own this color in a W206 C Class) and Verde, unfortunately none of the dealers in my area have had any Verde Silver in months so I cant see one in person.

I have not seen the Verde, but have the Cirrus, and really like it. It looks different when the bright sun is not shining on it, but the metallic paint really shines.

I have Verde Silver and finally found one to look at before I ordered mine but they are pretty scarce. I love the color and have had many compliments on the car in parking lots - I even caught one lady taking a picture of it.
It’s not a real strong green color but more of a silvery teal type color to me.
Here’s a pic of mine.

Thanks! Did you consider any other color before going with Verde?

I considered the moonlight white and the Sonoran brown but once I saw the verde, it was a done deal for me. I didn’t want black because 99% of the Mercedes you see are black. I just wanted something a little more out of the ordinary.

The Verde Silver is quite beautiful. I love the dark blue just a bit more but I was real tempted to get the Verde.

My pics are in the Official Picture Thread. Love the Verde Silver. Did not see before - but no regrets. Wife wanted green. I would have bought a dark green if MB had it - e.g. BRG. But this one seems more elegant and rare now. I also love the brown - and the dark blue. Those are the only colors I would personally buy on the E450. Tan interior though eliminates the Brown exterior for me. Too brown brown. Esp as I am also brown...
The Cirrus is def classic - but too many non MBs are also that color now. Don't want to lose the car in a parking lot. I like the rarity of Verde.

I agree the Dark Blue with the tan interior would be the "pinnacle" in looks. However after owning a black car, I didn't want to go back to black (or dark) due to dirt/dust showing so very easily on it.

I guess alternatively, high tech silver is a very classy looking colour and fits the MB character well but at least verde stands out among the grey scale cars around.

I love the verde silver color. I wish that it was available on all of the E class models, specifically the EQ models. If it was, I'd order one today! Maybe it will be offered in the 2026 models. Is there an order guide for 2026 EQ models out yet?

I understand the dilemma. I was intrigued by the Verde Silver color but hesitant to order an $80k+ car in a color I’d never seen in person. I was glad to find one to see and was convinced. It was a special order that was not even going on the lot and had just arrived. Still had the cardboard on the door panels and everything wrapped in plastic inside.
I’d keep checking online inventories to see if you can find one. They are now making the GLC in that color as well so you could search inventory on that as well. It’s easiest to search for “other” in the color filter.

Echoing @Hicksra impressions. I've had multiple people compliment the color and also had people compliment it in parking lots. I ordered mine based on pictures in the brochure and other videos and I'm very happy I went with Verde. It's more of a teal I would say.

Feel free to consider me a total Debbie Downer; don't let the shiny colors and sleek designs trick you into thinking you've just found the Holy Grail of cars.
More important than the glitzy looks and fancy specs is ensuring your car functions adequately before you drive it off the lot!
MBUSA's help for customers with problem vehicles is laughable; this doesn't even seem to make the cut for their agenda—it's like they've got a fancy spreadsheet, and "customer satisfaction" is listed under "Things to Avoid."
Somebody has to say it.

I have the Verde and really like the color. A standout among the mass of silvers/greys/blacks--you know, the German rainbow. Wish I could have duplicated the color of a 2011 E-coupe I leased: Nautic blue with blue and ivory interior

I love the Verde Silver, it is classy and does stand out. I am getting the GLC in that color. The other new color is Alpine Gray which is different and I like but have not seen it in person. I love Red but considering I have a red E 350 that I plan to keep. I wanted t try the new color. Your car is beautiful! I am glad Mercedes is trying new colors.

When I started the shopping process, I saw an Alpine Grey AT with black out trim and wheels and it really looked sharp. But before I moved on it, it was sold. Went into YouTube to read some reviews on the E450 series and it seemed like all the cars there were the Verde Silver, and I liked what I saw. (My car buff friends call the Alpine Grey a refrigerator color: No metallic and no depth to the color. That type of paint seems to be quite popular. I've seen it in light blue and medium green in addition to the grey. But only the grey looks good to me....)

Great car but did I understand you correctly, you leased a 2011 vehicle?

Do you mind posting pictures, that is a rare choice I wish there were more on the road.

I got the Verde Silver with the Tonka Brown leather and couldn't be happier. For me it is evocative of Mercedes and Jaguars I saw as a kid and always aspired to have myself. I've had people complement me on the street, and at staff at the dealer always say as an aside how much like the color, after seeing the endless succession of white, black and silver of most of the ones they have.

Its is a beautiful color and would have been my choice had I not gone with the Nautical Blue and Tonka Brown. I prefer the blue, but that Verde Silver is quite elegant.
