red C class?
Is it just me? or does the c class sedan look ridiculously good in the new red exterior? I saw a C class in a very distinctive red the other day with blacked out features and the two colors contrasted really well. Seen tons of silvers,white black and although they all look fantastic... this red was hard to beat. Anyone have this color? and if so name =?

it appears to have a nice tint of red in the sun and a deep rich red in the shade from the looks of it. Absolutely gorgeous color...too bad it costs an extra $2k to get this color here...

Love the Cardinal Red! I had to look all over the Bay Area to find one with the options I wanted. Silver, black and white were simple to find with any sort of option combo.

The red looks nice in that pic but I think the only real way to pick a color is to line them all up and splatter dirty water on all of them and then choose. I've noticed some colors look way worse dirty than others. Not that you can just see the dirt, but the impression of the color when dirty.

That's exactly right, Cardinal red looks great clean but I've seen it on a dirty C300 luxury version and it looked downright awful. I don't mean dirty like a car that hasn't been washed in a month I meant dirty like it just rained the night before. Palladium which is now being replaced with Selenite definitely hides dirt much better.

If you still want to hand wash without a hose (you'll still need a bucket and a spray bottle) I can PM you the stuff I use for my car. It could work really well for your situation.
