SL Shank had some great pictures of an SL500 in pewter with a sport package. That should help...

my sales person loved this with charcoal interior, I thought it looked goldish and went for brilliant silver instead

How about Tectite Grey? I remeber seeing a CL55 in that color and thought it was stunning. Much darker more mysterious.

White Black Silver are out for me...too many in those colors.
Red is asking for tickets...

Anybody know anything more about Designo Graphite?
someone before said it was a non-metallic.
