Help with GLC Coupe Color!

I just ordered my 2020 GLC coupe in graphite grey and cranberry red interior. I ordered the AMG package so it's a little sportier. However, I just saw one with this combination in a parking garage (overflow for one of the dealers), and I did not like it at all. The color seemed dull (not like the one I had seen earlier and based my decision on) and the red just didn't seem as appealing as I'd thought it would (had previously seen it in a white GLC). I'm now considering changing the color combination. I currently have a 2017 white GLC with beige interior. Beige is not an option with the AMG package. I am now wondering if I should opt for just black exterior and black interior or one of the silvers with a black (or maybe still red) interior. Any thoughts would be appreciated!

Thanks!

Selenite Grey is a nice colour - I think with the black/white nappa leather option it would look awesome

Thank you. Agree that would look great, but that interior is not an option with the AMG line option. Unfortunately, it's either black, saddle or cranberry/red for the interior. If I want AMG body but more options for interior, I'd have to get the AMG 43 which is $10K more.

The colour choice is pretty poor....
Graphite Grey is a lovely colour under the showroom lights but like most others put them out in the rain and dark and they're not as impressive!
I've just ordered Mojave Silver with cream and brown interior.

Another choice for color: Mojave Silver metallic looks great in real life. Picture on the MBUSA configurator is not even close...
And all of interior color combinations are available

You answered your own question- get black with black. I just picked up a 2019 GLC, black with black. My previous GLC was white with beige, before that a GLK white with beige. The black on black has a formality and sportiness that the others lacked. My dealer offers unlimited car washes so it makes my decision easier to justify.
