Pewter Silver Vs Desert Silver

Hello,

Can someone post pics of the two colors?

Help me to decide between the 2. My interior is Macadamia/Brown.

I have some photos but it's dificult for me to diferenciate between the 2.

Best Regards.

In my estimation Desert silver is the ugliest color I have seen on most any vehicle. Its not silver, its not gold but it is a metallic brown.

I wanted to take Desert Silver, but I will reconsider it after knowing your opinion.

In photos don't look so bad.

Best Regards.

I agree with Sosh, don't like Desert Silver. But, color is totally personal, so don't listen to anyone and go with your gut.

Both of these colors are available on other MB vehicles now. I'd take a visit to your local lot and see them in person. I personally prefer the Pewter over the Desert anyday. But like Greg said, it's a personal decision so go take a look.
