Looked at some e55's and really like the ones whose color, according to the owner, is PEWTER.

I've seen ads for "GOLD" colored e55's and was wondering if they're one in the same. The pics look the same.

Thanks for any help. Really appreciate it.

They're definitely not the same. Pewter costs about 25c per ounce and last time I checked gold cost like at least triple that

The pewter color MB uses is kinda tricky... depending on the lighting it can appear gray / gold.

I think you're referring to "Desert Sand" or "Champagne" as gold color

When was the last time you checked the price of gold? Hell if you got some gold I'll give you your $0.75/oz ... Especially since GOLD is @ about $1,800/oz!!!

Desert Silver Metallic (693) and Pewter Silver Metallic (723) are two distinct colors.
Sometimes desert silver metallic photographed in low light looks dark gray.
I can assure you that in person, it definitely looks like it belongs in the cafeteria of Hometown Buffet.

Desert Silver was discontinued in 2005.

I think white and pewter are the best colors for W211's. Both look 100% better with the pano roofs as well.

Pewter looks a bit darker than Gold IMO. It's the easiest maintenance color you can find. Never really get dirty unlike my black W210.....
