2005 E55 on order----color advice

I have on order 2005 E55 Capri Blue, charcoal/blue insert. I have not actually seen this color on E-class. Would I be better off with midnight blue?

Dr. Chill has Capri Blue on his E55. It sounds like a good color combination. I would go for the Capri Blue.

2004 E55 tectite grey/charcoal
I have seen both and personally prefer the capri blue. The midnight blue appeared somewhat dull and flat to me.

Lolith Blue, Designo Mocha Black and Diamond Black are some of the nicest colors, IMO. However, not sure if they offer those colors for the 211s.

2002 E55, Brilliant Silver/Charcoal and Grey, All option except Parktronic.
Nice color combination

I think that you will like your choice. I thought of that or Bordeaux red with Merlot inserts just to keep the color trend inside and out. My 210 is Silver with Charcoal/Grey and I really like the two tone. I wish that they had the Charcoal/Grey combo in the 211.
If someone has a picture of a Bordeaux red and Charcoal/Merlot W211 E55 I sure would like to see it before I have to lock down my color choice for my '05.
Good luck with your car and your color choice.
