They say green is making a comeback...

Well, I visited EuroMotorcars in Bethesda this past weekend and the dealership had a fully loaded, 2014 S550 Sedan in Emerald Green, the new color that debuted on the S-class coupe. It's a beautiful color. I only took one photo to show the color, as from a distance or in the wrong lighting, the car looks black. Now only if MB offered the saddle leather color that is available on the coupe (I think nut brown is the closest color available on the sedan).

***Update: just ran across the car on eBay and apparently the color may have been special ordered for the car.

I would love to see MB break out of their shell on colors. And, I would especially like to see the standard colors for the S Class be something other than what one can order on lesser models. I'd love to see a real, non-metallic, British Racing Green with a full saddle interior. How about a wonderful deep, burgundy red? I could even imagine a very soft yellow. Bentley does these colors and I think they look fantastic. I could even get excited with a solid, non-metallic white, like BMW's gorgeous Alpine White. With MB, it seems that most colors are just some shade of black or silver and that's boring. On a $100K plus car, there should be way more color choices, both exterior and interior--and to get them, you shouldn't have to pay another 50% of the base price of the car.

The green just screams high 90's to me when that Jade Green Metallic was everywhere.

I saw that car on eBay and love the color

Link please. Would love to see more pics.

So would I. In comparison, many higher cost cars {Ferrari, Lamborghini, Aston Martin} basically allow customers to paint the car any way they want from a pallet of about 30 standard colors, and an extra cost option whereby the customer sends in a painted sample and the factory matches the car to the given sample.

In particular, I wanted my S600 to be Rossa Corsa from the Ferrari paint book and had to settle for Diamond White.

Whatever happened to the concept that the customer is right?

Red Marko

Valid point. Client supplies the coin, MB bends over.
It was being done before...

Wolfman

Done before? Like when?

Sounds nice but customizations like that have not been MB's thing ever. This is where places like Brabus flourish; a good part of their business has nothing to do with tuning but customizing these cars.

A red S600. Now that would be interesting.

I found it. http://www.ebay.com/itm/Mercedes-Benz-S-Class-4dr-Sedan-S550-RWD-emerald-green-s550-chauffeur-pkg-burmester-2015-burmeister-/261681042224?forcerrptr=true&hash=item3ced67d330&item=261681042224&pt=US_Cars_Trucks
Edit: now i see that the OP attached it. sigh.

My 1994 Q45 was this color w/a much lighter interior, probably closer to Merc's Porcelain. I loved the combination back then and still like it now.

I'm glad I DIDN'T see this car before placing the order for my E350 -- I probably would have bought this instead.

The one downside about this S is its a MY2014. So no touchpad and heads up display.

They say geniuses pick green... I want it, but not on an S-Class. Will Emerald Green be available on any other models?

How about some pics? The ebay link has broken pics

See other thread, or you can google pictures of the color on the coupe:

I always did like BRG, on Jaguar's, not sure how I feel about it on an S class though

MBZSW221

I'm not totally impressed by the color choices on the W222. Emerald Green looks very nice but I wish they would add something similar to Pewter or Flint Gray.

I also would like to more color choices not just blacks and greys. I had to special order my S550 just to get ruby-black, something a bit different. I really do like the emerald green . . .

Huge fan of emerald green. There are not too many of those, but it's a classy color.

Also, if you get in touch with the right manager you can order any MBZ color whether it is discontinued or in production. If anyone needs assistance special ordering a color, we can help!

that's funny......they have lots of grey's and silvers already
