White ML55?

I want to buy my son an ML55 for his birthday and was wondering if anyone has ever seen a white one or if they even made one??

Bad news...they didnt make it in white..after viewing a 147 listings on autotrader and eventually reading this https://mbworld.org/forums/archive/i...p?t-78425.html

it's true, no white on a ML55....you could always get him a white ML500 sport ?

I have seen a few ML55's in Alabaster White - and the car looks great in that color.

Simple special order, good ol' PA-1.

Always get your car in the color that you want it in....

Do you have any pics? Does anyone think it would be a good idea to have it professionally painted a pearl white?

car value drops, if you're going to drive it to the ground, then go for it

Does this mean my upcoming ML63 will be rare? Just kidding, but I think white in the ML63 will look good.

Order it from the dealer in Designo Mystic White -- you're looking at a $1000 to $2000 USD custom-order charge, and you're getting MBZ nano-paint from the factory.

Folks: order your new MBZ in the color that you want(!). If you order it, they will paint it...at the factory.

I think he is talking about buying a used ML55, not a new ML63.
