To answer your question, April 19th is the date you're likely to be able to start placing orders outside the US...MBUSA had been accepting orders for two weeks already.

I'm pretty sure Mystic White is a pearly metallic white paint that really sparkles in the sun. Think of Diamond White but better.

My last G55K was Firemist Red … and I loved it!
If I can get the Mystic Red into the US … I would
Otherwise a light colour, like matt silver, or one of the whites … to keep my dog cool when its in the sun

I'm going with magno platinum...the matt paint on my G55 is super durable and looks brand new after two years of desert driving...i just want something slightly darker this time.

I've heard so many horror stories about matte paint from my friends in the paint & body industry. Can you share more details regarding your experience? How do you deal with fingerprints, oils from skin around door handles, etc.?

Despite the few things I don't like about the 2013, I will order one. My choices of paint are magno black, magno platinum or if possible magno alanite grey (edition 79's color).
From what I remember Jimmy saying, MB's matte repels dust and dirt better than traditional paint and requires no maintenance other than washing and drying. I've seen cars with an after market matte and I've seen MB's mattes (magno night on the SL550 night edition and magno platinum on a G55). The difference is day and night. MB's is like silk.

There is a Matt Black G55 in my neighborhood. I never noticed any problems with the matt finish … but I was not looking for any?
Next time I see it parked, I will check out the door handle area.

Do the matte color options exist on other MB variants or on the g55? Ild like to see some pics of the designo night black and designo platinum? Any pics? the ones on the facebook configurator are not even close to accurate.

The designo magno night debuted on the SL550 Night Edition. The magno platinum is the equivalent of a matte grey. Magno alanite grey (G55 Edition 79) seems to be a matte silver; it's lighter.
You have to see them in real life to give it justice. It has nothing to do with the traditional after market matte paints. MB's matte is like silk.
