I don't mean to jack your thread, but I didn't feel it would be good to start my own. Here is a pic of my 2011 GLK I picked up a week and a half ago! I'm in Houston too, took the pic this weekend with the nasty cloud coverage! Mine is black with lighting package too.

no rain here in Maui but for the last couple of nights they have been burning the sugarcane and it gets on your car. Glad mine is black but it still needs a bath.

Congrats on the new GLK

Thanks, everyone! And after the past few days it definitely already needs a bath.

that's where boring silver/grey comes in...2 months and still sparking clean

congrats on new car, GLK in darker colors looks awesome, just too much work too keep it clean.

I knew it would be a lot harder to keep clean, but I'm coming from a silver Camry that I've had for 6 years, and although it's a great car, I was really itching for some color this time. And I also really like how the GLK looks in the darker colors.

2010 GLK 350 Sandstone Beige
I still like the Sand Beige and it appears it was only a 1 year color so mine might become a classic. I haven't washed mine all summer after putting on 2 coats of Rejex. The only thing I clean often is the brake dust with high pressure water and an occasional vacuum. I've only done the tan upholstery once and MB-tex is easy to clean.

2010 GLK 4matic
Ok so i love the new fog lights on the lighting package. Makes me wonder if it can be added to the 10? If so anybody know how much? Also, is the foglight in the light itself now or completely gone?

Are they still fogs or they are actual DRLs?

They're just DRLs on the 2011 models.
