Hi everyone,

I'm going to order a SL 350 by tomorrow and confirm the color. Please anyone explain whats the difference between Obsedian Black, Designo Mocca Black, Designo Brilliant Black & Designo Platium Black??

I want a very dark metalic black color?? Which one above is for me??

Thx

James

 

Why in the world would you order a BLACK car?????

 

James,

Obsidian black is a metallic black with, I believe, a clear coat.
Mocha black is a metallic black with dark brown flakes. Very pretty in my opinion but definitely a very dark brown/black.
I have not seen the latter two.
There is also a Magestic Black in the US which is a dark blue/black.

Hope this helps.

Jeff

 

My last E55 was pure black and It looked good when clean but showed small surface scratches very badly.

I have obsidian Black on my ML63 and in most lighting it is Black. But in bright sunlight it takes on a slightly blackish/gray color. Surface scratches though are less noticable.

Good luck!

 

You want pewter. It hides dirt and scratches. The chicks love pewter.

 

palladium (steel grey for US) with sl red interior. like a sl of old
