? on SL65 Configuration

? on SL65 Configuration. Is it possible to get an SL65 with the same look as my current SL600. Black exterior, STONE interior, Wood Steering Wheel, Light colored alcantara roof? I ask this because most AMG's that I see have black interiors. Thanks for any input.

on mbusa.com I couldn't get your pretty stone leather on any color of SL65...the grey looked pretty good though. I just don't like red leather personally, so that'd be out for me...but I thought you were rethinking the whole black paint thing?

When configuring my order, that color leather was not an option on a non-designo car (for the US market). I think only anthracite, ash (grey) and red were available.

Aside from designo options, there have only ever been 3 standard colours for AMG models - dark grey, light grey and red. The non-AMG cars have blue (rarely seen) and stone in addition. I don't care for the blue at all but I can imagine stone looks good with some (darker) exterior colours
