2003 sl500 what is DIAMOND BLUE color like
I am thinking of buying a used 2003 sl500 with 5000 miles loaded but what is Diamond blue color like? I have never seen this color. Also is panorama roof worth having?

It is a current color and can be seen at the Mercedes Benz Dealers.
As for the panorama roof most people love it. Personally, I think it looks great from the outside but not from the inside. They use a very cheap net to cover the space and it is framed in skimpy plastic. I don't like that look as it is very cheap so I passed on the roof when I ordered my car.
Good luck.

Diamond Silver is a color that you either love or hate. My wife wanted to get Diamond Silver at first, but when we saw the car in the shade, it looks like a little green tint.
I recommend that you see the color in the bright sunlight and then in the shade before you decide.

I love the Diamond Blue. Much better than the standard ubiquitous silver. I also don't see many of them in San Diego.
