Which color for 2008 ML63?

[MB4Me2]

It's between Alabaster White and Alpine Rain with Black Leather interior....which one would you choose? Or neither/other? I'm placing an order for a November delivery. I do not want black.

Wish I had a photo of a ML63 in Alpine Rain or the White. Can't find one. If you have one, please post/attach the photo. Thanks!

No question in my mind - Alpine Rain. It's basically power blue metallic, and very sharp [but you'll pay a price premium for the metallic paint].

Also, it's a nice departure from most of the other MLs that seem to be either white, black, or some grade of metallic gray.

My ML is Alpine Rain with black interior. Given a choice, I would have opted for Macademia interior - this would be a very, very sharp color combination. If you can make this change, I would recommend it.

Good luck!

Could you post some exterior and interior pix? I'd like to actually see one in Alpine Rain! Also, did you change the wheels yet? Or PM me for my email. Thanks.

i personally would get the alpine rain.

does anyone have any production stats as to how money of each color was produced.

i imagine that black and silver are amongst the highest production colors.

alpine rain should be a rare and beautiful color to own.

I can't get pictures of my ML quickly, but I did a quick search and came across pictures of one for sale. You can go to the following link to see the vehicle:

Now this is an Alpine Rain exterior/Macademia interior - the exact combination I would select if I were ordering the vehicle new. I'm sure you can very easily find an ML with black interior given it's so common. But if not, let me know and maybe in a couple of days I'll be able to secure some pictures.

Hope this helps and best of luck.

Alabaster White has been replaced with Glacier White for the 08 model year. Glacier White is the color that is on all the other Benz vehicles other then the ML/GL/R class. That would be my vote as this is what I ordered for our ML320cdi.
Good luck

Glacier White. Hmmm. Must be a lot brighter/whiter?

BLACK IS MY COLOUR.

Thanks. Those photos are a bit enhanced. I know it's not quite that blue-ish. I wouldn't get the lighter interior - too hard to maintain. I prefer black.

I vote for White.
I've got 4 metalic color cars and I'm getting tired of them.
I like the simple white. It's like a big whale

My big whale will be produced on 6 aug 2007 (white 420 CDI)
