2013 GLK
Brown is Beautiful

Picked up 2013 GLK350 - to replace a totaled 2011. Want to talk safety? Anyway the new one is pretty well loaded. Sticker $54,385
Took me many years to go German. BMW 3 Series in 2004. The only bad part is you actually have to read the manuals. BMW I Drive was a one year project. Thankfully MB’s instructions are pretty clear. Got the Cuprite Brown Metallic, and had the $900 paint thing done elsewhere for $175 With the AMG wheels, and side boards, it is truly beautiful. My neighbors have voted it number one town.

I LOVE Curprite Brown. I've only seen it on two GLKs and I really like it.

Very quickly, take your photo and upload it to a hosting site like ImageShack. When the picture is on the site right click the photo copy the the image URL then come back here and start your post. At the point you want to insert the photo click on the insert image icon (yellow icon with mountain it) and paste the URL in that box and say OK. That's it.

OK - thanks for the instructions. This is not a good shot - I will try for a better one.

You almost have it right.



This is the way it should look. You should see the picture not the link to the photo. Since your thumbnail photo was the only picture with a URL that is what you see. If you go to an online album these are the types you will see.



This is my toy.

Or you can go anyplace on the web and copy pictures like this.

That photo really shows off the color you're posting about

Pretty sure that GLK won't pull your fifth wheel.
Nice ride. Can't tell if it has bi xenons from the photo. Running boards really add a nice touch.
Congrats.

I love Cuprite Brown. I really, really liked it. But Keyless Go was a mandatory item for me, and they didn't have one.
