exterior diff on 2007 ML320 and ML500
Looking to buy SUV for wife. Any exterior difference on 07 ML320 and ML500?
Also on package 333 Sport Package; is there an option for side bars and running board?
Thank you.

333 Sport package ....
I just ordered an ML320 CDI with 333 M-sport package. MBUSA.com says it includes:
· Chrome accents
· Blue-tinted glass
· 19" 6-twin spoke wheels or 19" 5-spoke wheels
· Front & rear chrome skid plates
· Running Boards
My paperwork does not say running boards, but does say:
- P96: exterior appearance
- R02: all season tires
- U89: skid plate, front and rear
- V59: Speed and load index
- 846: side bars
I'm uncertain what a side bar is.....would appreciate an explaination.

No. He does not work on Fridays, and I was very busy yesterday. I intend to ask tomorrow. If it is the tubular side-step bars, I won't mind--the running boards weren't very important to me--I wanted the other stuff. I will let y'all know what I find out.

I asked the dealer about the 846 Side Bar--he says that's the aluminum running boards, like the Web site says/shows...and now I've cross-checked the information I got when I was investigating the options that will be offered on the 2008--it also shows 846=Running Boards.
Perhaps Side Bar is a direct German translation of Running Board?

How about the blue window tient? Is it part of the package?

Interestingly, although blue glass is listed as a part of 333 on the MBUSA site, my invoice shows it under "STANDARD ACCESSORIES"
I know blue glass will be standard on the 2008 model; it may be that MB has already started making it standard...or it could be an error on my invoice as to where it's listed.
Looks to me like the features from 333 will be standard on the 2008 model, except the running boards
