Designo Manufaktur Allanite Grey Magno

I know I'm the only in Japan but was wondering if anyone know how to find how many of the Designo Manufaktur Allanite Grey Magno were produced worldwide?

I'm also reading there maybe an Edition 1, wondering if anyone knows anything about that as well. I couldn't find anything in the search.

Man as long as I can remember, actual production numbers for Mercedes have been elusive. Back in the 1990s there was a book someone wrote detailing all the production numbers up until 1989 I think, but it did not specify colors.

I have to say though, this is an amazing paint and color on the W222 chassis!

That's sad to here. I was hoping there was a register for Designo or something.

'94 SL600,'05 SL600,'06 S65,'07 E63,'14 E63S,'09SL600 all sold, ‘15 S65,‘18 E63S,'17 SL65, '17S65Cab
What we do have is a register of all the SL65's produced by country, options, color etc. Designo magno Allanite Gray existed prior to the start of the Manufactur program. We have an A217 S65 Cab in that color. Using the SL65 register, a total of 728 R231 SL65's were delivered world wide. This was during the years that paint color was offered. Only 15 of those 728 were painted in designo magno Selenite Gray. The SL65 is almost double the price of a typical S560 so expensive options were routine on these cars, yet only 15 had that color. This hopefully gives you an idea of how rare that color is.
The SL65 data was assembled thanks to a whole lot of hard work by jmattioni , a Senior Member of this forum.
