and Bose system.....It's due in October. I liked the Opal Black exterior (saw it on a E-320 and C-280 at the MB dealer). It hints of bluish and grey tones. But....frankly I did not like the Sand and Grey leather color selections for the interior. I grudgingly selected the grey because... 1st. There are no other leather choices. 2nd. it blends (I felt) better with the exterior color and will handle off-road abuse better than the Sand. Suggestion: I think M. Benz should make one or two other color selections available (Oyster and Dark Blue are great). Or a blend of two colors (after all the M-Class is a sports AAV), like: Palomino and Oyster or Oyster and dark Blue or Oyster and Grey. I would like to see an Oyster and dark Blue interior or a dark Blue leather interior..... Does Mercedes Benz check this post? I hope so.....

[I've ordered my M class in black, even though everyone I know thinks I'm nuts and says I should get silver. Again, it's a personal choice. I think a black M class looks cool even though it isn't as practical as silver. Note that the super sun roof only comes in black, so a black M will look more finished than other colors with this option.] I don't like the look of the gray leather with the wood trim. The wood (and plastic) is too reddish and just plain looks out of place with the gray leather. I've ordered the sand interior, which can now be ordered with black exterior. The wood/sand combo looks more natural. Yes, the seats will look dirty sooner. If you are going to go off road or do something dirty, use seat covers or another vehicle. [I have ratty work vehicles too.] Further, I find the gray interior depressing. Again, it's a personal choice. ======================================================================= M-Class Mailing List http://www.off-road.com/mbenz Subscription Info http://www.off-road.com/mbenz/guideline.html Sponsored by Clair Parts Express: http://www.clair.com/parts/index.html *** Send [Un]Subscription message to majordomo@lists.off-road.com *****
