Tectite Grey vs Designo Graphite
Are those colors the same? They look the same to me...
Can anyone educate me please?
Also, does anybody know what the color code is please? Thanks!

btw, I read Jim (jl88) saying that the tectite grey option for the SL was removed and repackaged into the designo graphite package, hence it is the same color.
So is it just the same? for example it's tectite grey on the w211 but graphite on the SL?

Graphite appeals to me slightly better rather than Tectite. They are similar but there is a difference.
My personal favorite it Flint Grey.

The Designo graphite is a great color, love it! The code is 041. We had a sportcoupe with this color, was realy beatiful. There's a little bit of green in the paint, but you'll only see it if the sun is shining.
The code for Tektite is 753, we recently had a E500 4-M station in tektite! (special order).

My G500 is in Techtite - best color I have ever seleted for a car (truck). Techtite = not black, not grey and does NOT show dirt at all. Love that color...an updated version of the old original 356 Porsche grey.

Same here. Best color on the G500. They don't make it on the G anymore right? I have an '03 model so I've been away from the new car game awhile since Mercedes Financial decided to try some fraud on me.

Tectite is so nice - not a pain to keep clean like black and not as common as silver - gorgeous color - but I am biased
