Personally I am not a fan of the Magno (Matt) colours, but Monza Grey fits the car well (not too dark, not too light). I might consider Selenite Grey (Hitech Silver maybe too light for my taste).

Streamliner, you look like you have owned more that a couple Mercedes! I have a question for you or anyone on the Forum: Is the new 2022 SL55 as low as a C7 Corvette? I ask because I've owned 8 Corvettes in the past but my knees can't take getting in and out of a car that low to the ground. I own a 2020 E53 Cabriolet which is fine for seat height entering and leaving.
Thanks in Advance
Alan

The SL should be a tad higher than the C7 which is lower to the ground, but the SL should still lower than your E53. Seeing as SL's are not yet available, there is no way for one to test. Best gauge would be to try and get in and out of an outgoing R231 SL.

They also brought it to EuroCars Bethesda so I believe they're taking it to the top AMG stores.

They did Kentucky stores on Tuesday. I guess even though we're close we weren't on the schedule being a different state.

If that’s the case my local dealer will not see one till the mid cycle refresh.

My guess is when I sit down in the finance office to sign the paperwork MB will ring in and tell me.

We’ve got to laugh because a lot of this is getting ridiculous. Good luck to everyone waiting.

Hyper Blue is easily the best color in my opinion, but there are so many great ones. Only color I wouldn't get is black because it hides the lines too much and is a bit boring for a car this beautiful. I also really like the Cirrus w/ Red top combo.
