Is this blue E63 a factory color?

Is this E63 a concept car with custom paint or is this a color available on newer AMGs?

Deep but not too bright and flashy, It would look great on an E55 with some grey center/polished lip HRE 541R or 545R.

Or it could just be the lighting....

So would the Caddy Black Diamond with crimson brake calipers instead of yellow.

That's one of those paints you have to see in person, it looks like ground up glass in person

If it was an available color, then I stand corrected. I still think it's dead sexy.

I think its the same color as the one I saw at the AMG driving academy/ private lounge meet last time. It looks really nice.

Love that blue. Kind of reminds me of the Monte Carlo blue Corvette has but deeper, especially under those lights.
Very strong color.
Got to be careful with your interior choices,.
Got to love that black on the CTS-V.
