2008 ML550
Just Bought 2008 ML550

got it for a crazy low price so i had to pull the trigger....

its a Dark dark green that almost looks black (anyone know name of color)

tan interior with all options.

my friend hates his car so much because of this color.
he was fooled by dealer who sold it to him as a BLACK color. lol
he is considering trade a same car with Black.
BTW, I love that color. it will change color under different light source ,

or the AMG style bumper?

I'm in Vancouver and when I bought my ML500, I special ordered that color. I've only seen one other ML in that color and it was an ML63.

My next ML63 will be that color again...

if you don't like the amg bumper, you can always post to see if someone would trade their stock bumper + some cash for the amg bumpers.

Dont change the AMG to standard bumper. Instead save up another 800 dollars to add some flares and you will have a car that looks so much better than the normal looking non AMG shape it's scary.

Colour is amazing also!
