Just picked up a 2014 GL450 Cinnabar with Almond interior. Great looking combo. BTW, the floor mats are dark gray. Is the standard with the almond interior? My wife got tired of my driving her 2014 ML350, so she got me my own MB. Sweetheart!

I have a 2015 gl350 that is code197 - obsidian black metallic with black interior. There aren't a lot of colour choices when buying used.

My new to me GL63 is black on black as well (though the plain old black). I was hoping to find one in steel gray with porcelain interior as that’s my favorite color combo but I’m fine with black. Obsidian black would have been preferred over regular black in my mind from a dirt rejection perspective (I live on a long gravel driveway) but buying used my focus was more on avoiding technical flaws or ratty interiors. I’ve looked at many over the last couple of years and many had maintenance issues or abused interiors. Especially the porcelain seems to get dingy pretty easily.

I looked at a few and found a 2016 GL350 with low mileage. It was dark blue with the porcelain interior, that stopped me right away because I just thought of how the grand kids would wreak havoc on it. The GL I bought was a trade in at a BMW dealership so you have to figure if they kept it to resell then it was most likely a good vehicle. There were a couple of minor issues not to my liking, they agreed to fix them for me so I bought it.

Traded in my palladium silver 2014 S550 for a palladium silver 2015 GL450 end of last summer. S-Class trunk space was too small for golf clubs and walking cart.

Didn't see a Tenorite Gray Metallic in your list. But that's what I have.
