With all the diatribes from the "I have a $200 Flaw Finder Light" people, who in the world would want to post a photo of their car?
Unless they are prepared to defend their photo, they'll probably just skip posting it, and this thread has been killed.
I like the way my car looks.
Even if I've been roundly chastised for the wrong color microfiber towel or the way I hold my mouth when rinsing.
I'd like to avoid lectures. Others can wash the car their own way.
Let's just enjoy looking at photos of the new cars. Napa Premium.
That interior is gorgeous. Had the new SL looked that good inside we would be in one.
I'll add another photo from when "Glen" was brand new. Going on 9 months now and I love this car! We've done road trips to Carmel and Yosemite. Looking forward to the drive to Santa Barbara in a few weeks!

My favorite color and my favorite wheels ... absolutely stunning.
I agree.
Now they also do metallic black right, too! (Obsidian)
I had trouble deciding, fancy white or fancy black. The trim packages available swayed me to Obsidian. If it hadn't had a night package, I would have gone diamond white.
That obsidian black looks so awesome when it has a nice coat of wax on it. I love black cars but they are just too hard for me to keep clean in Florida with all the rain we get. I can cheat with white and only wash it every other week.
Apparently Red SUV's aren't that popular which works out well for me. I LOVE Designo Cardinal Red Metallic and had the same color on my CLS550. I recently purchased this CPO GLE350 and got a smoking deal when prices were higher than normal EVERYWHERE!!! #winning (except for the clunky transmission).
It’s been 4 days after my last dealership visit and still no warning lights! Wahoo! I’m about to leave for a 542 mile one way trip so fingers crossed it stays that way.

Nice shot. Don't you wish you had a black/darker car? I drive a similar color car and while I like it for easy maintenance, I sometimes wish it were darker/black.

no way. I am in the desert. This one gets hot enough. Plus I think that the black car loses the lines a bit in presentation. I’ve the 20+ cars I’ve owned only two were black… a 911 targa and an Audi 100CS, don’t miss them.

Same here... two black. The rest are either your color or silver or white. We swore we would not get another white but settled with Diamond for her this time. In a way it's not really white like Polar White.
Nice-looking car. There is a third-party vendor on this site that sells an adapter to enable wireless carplay. I can't vouch for it but if you browse the V167 forum threads, you should see a couple posts about that product.
So it looks like you already have a front plate bracket mounted on your car. Question: did you do that yourself, and if so, did you have to drill into the bumper? Or were there already pre-drilled/threaded mounting holes?

Pre-threaded holes, out of sight behind the lower fascia.
The AMG one is pretty bulky for the AMG package, sticking out much more than a non-AMG. It's because of the aggressive side profile of the front bumper.
Ordered before X'mas and just picked up two weeks ago. Iridium silver. Truffle-black. The SUV came loaded with almost all Canadian options and packages, except upgraded Burmeister and rear seat entertainment. I took a few picture under different lighting conditions. Iridium silver seems having lost some of its popularity, but, to my eyes, it looks clean and rich, showing the shape and lines extremely well, especially with Night Package. Initially ordered red interior but changed to truffle.
It drives very well: supple and tight at the same time. For someone starts to need reading glasses and hate computer screens sitting too close to me, the shining displays are a bit annoying. Basic Burmeister system needed a bit adjustment, but eventually sounds quite good. Coming from many merc, bimmer, audi executive sedans/wagons/SUVs (no super sport cars), GLE 53 doesn't have the quietest cabin, even with the Acoustic Comfort Package. I would rank my 2018 Q7 way ahead. But, GLE 53 still feels more luxurious overall, and, quite a bit more sporty.
So far, loving it!
can you let me know what colour the stitching is with the black and truffle setup ?
