Help Pls - 2011 w or w/o Perf and carb fib, etc
hey guy, new to W212 but not to the forum as im a currentl owner of a 2007 E63 looking to trade in for a 2011 due to the great deals out there.
Have 2 great options and would like the expertise of the owners here please:
Option 1: White with prem, distronic plus, rear view, illumin door sill, nite view assist, pano and 19s, 4k kms demo.
Option 2: Black with prem, amg perf, rear view, amg exterior carbon fibre, amg carbon ceraminc brakes, illum door sill, 19s and 5k kms.
Money is the issue. They need about $14.5 more for the black. i'm not crazy about black cars bec theyre so hard to maintain and the white really looks nice with the pano roof. Money is flowing and the $15 is more or less financed so more back ended. BOTTOM LINE - ARE THESE OPTIONS REALLY WORTH $15 (and i know retail theyre worh more but seriously esp the carbon fibre brakes?).
Please help as I need to make a decision Sat!!
thanks....

Ill be short:
get the white one for 15k less- the PP on the W212 (pre 2012) is not as worthy since you dont get the HP bump and they are seriously marking up the car for that package and the carbon ceramics which also are not a necessary item unless you plan on excessive track days. But also save money for an excessive service bill cause carb cerams are not cheap to replace.
White on pano is class------- trust me- I have one.
and the one you mentioned has the necessary items and few extras.
