My CLS55 is silver/black and is a great combo but i've always wanted a white ride.

Looks like I'm going to find out soon enough.

my only concern with the silver on the ml is all the chrome it has (e.g. running boards, front bumper etc.) - i don't know how it'll look.

if i was getting a cls... silver would be the color - i think it looks really good (in fact i even considered getting a silver cls instead of the ml after seeing one)

My second choice was white, it looks REALLY sharp but I am too partial to black to change color.

I was in to pick up ml after the rentech upgrades. There was a white/blk one in the shop getting a brabus tail fin on the hatch. It looks really fine. The tail fin looks too good to not get one. I still like silver best but I would have been very happy with the white. Saw a red one with Alberta plates in Kelowna yesterday. It didn't do anything good for me.

The Alberta plate or the red color?

Or did it have Flames stickers all over it? hehe

. The red doesnt suit the ML IMO. Its also an odd shade. I really think it looks best in Silver, black, white and alpine. The red is, umn, not so nice. I have relatives in Alta. One told me this joke- If Calgary is the a__hole of the world, then Edmonton is 100 miles up it!

Its actually a horizontal fin at the top of the hatch which you can see on the Brabus page. There was one being fitted to a white ML63 while I was in. It looked great so I ordered one. It should be getting painted as we speak. I will post a pic once completed.

If I can find a place up here I may try a 1/4 mile sometime. It doesn't feel like there would be a 12.7 time though. I'm thinking closer to 13 if I'm lucky. Didn't a fellow get 13.2 on his best run on another link.

I really wan't to see if I can get a sprint booster sent here. The ML is a little lazy on launch until about 3k when the wheels spin a bit and then she really goes. I'm thinking the renntech tranny ECU upgrade might be worthwhile as It rarely redlines till shift. When It does its like a kick in the ***.
