Sounds like you're getting a dream car, congratulations.

But you have me a bit confused about the wood. I thought curly maple was one kind of wood and cinnamora another. My CLK 55 AMG has the natural curly maple. It's paint color is a dark green called desingo alanite green metallic. I think you can find on the web some posts from a guy in Switzerland who bought a SLK 32 AMG a few years ago with the same color green as me, but with the cinnamora wood. That wood is a little redder and, naturally, less "curly" than mine .

To make things even more confusing, MB now sells for the CL cars a designo wood called curly maple red. Natural curly seems to have disapeared from the catalog. Can anyone confirm that ?
