What color is this

I saw this color on a web site and wanted to know if these pics are authentic or photoshopped.

Many.... but mostly MB!
Strange ...... Radio Anttana

It's BLACK? It's not the same color as the car's body!

Hmmmm ... but I think it's diamond silver.

It looks so much like quartz blue (from the CLK) but I know that color is not available on the SL. I also didn't think that diamond silver was that blueish though. This is a strange pic, but I am considering ordering the car in this color!

Well, when you

right click on the picture and go to properties, the name of the file had "Velvet Blue" in the name. Wonder if that color is available in the US

Does Mercedes offer color to sample like Porsche does?

I'll call up my dealership to ask if they have any SL Brochure's avalible and see if they have that color in the back. I'm not sure tho.

This color is not in any US mercedes brochure. I have looked at the MB website throughout various countries and still no match. I think that either: 1) the person photoshopped the car, or 2) This is Quartz Blue.
