Gorgeous color. I hope to find one. Have been searching the past few days but very few for sale. I also like Rubellite Red in the 223.

2018 S560; 2022 EQS450+
I have spent most of my time reviewing EQS cars, since getting my 450+ last December, but have decided to spend some of my 90 year old days looking at the W222 archives, since we have an '18 S560.
Ours is the Emerald Green, or the green equivalent of the ruby-black cars. We've had a ton of compliments about the color, especially when seen in the sunshine here in Kentucky, but even more questions: "Is it green or black?" Very valid to ask this - when we drove up to the dealer to pick up the car, I said to my wife, "That cannot be ours, it's black, not green!" But, we love it. I'm not a picture poster, but you'll understand what I'm saying.

Nice of you - in the paint, it's darker - more black - than in the order brochure...I was a little disappointed, but c'est la vie.

Honestly, I prefer Black, but ruby black color pattern is striking nonetheless
