I would personally go with white.

 

+1

 

that s 3 for white!

 

White is my favour color too. But easy to get dirty !!

 

It's got to be Iridium Silver. No contest.

 

Went to pre release showing of the S212 estate they had the Tenorite Grey, Indium Grey, Iridium Silver and the Palladium Silver. My opinion is the 1st two greys are too dark the Iridium Silver very common and i have had 3 in the light silver so seeing all the colours next to each other the Palladium silver was for me no contest looks great drives great and my dog loves it she is a retriever and looks lost in the back with all the seats down .

 

Exactly our thinking. With grey leather interior. Great minds think alike.

Thanks guys. After i saw the obsidian black in the street, i ordered obsidian black with AMG package, pan. roof, keyless go and sun protection. I will get the car in Sep.

 

Surprising choice. One would expect a more contrasting color in combination with AMG, panoramic roof and black interior. Mind you, I like a black exterior too, my all time favorite by far, but again in combination with AMG and pano... I don't know. The thing is I see the W212 with the AMG sports package all the time nowadays and the ones in black, well... you don't see it's an AMG until you're really up close. The lines in the front somewhat blend together preventing you from picking up the more aggressive styling of AMG. The same applies to pano, you can't really tell if it's a pano roof unless the colors really contrast. If the car is parked however, it's stunning. Aggressive styling combined with an aggressive color. Absolutely beautiful. It's just that you don't pick up the same look once the car is driving.

Again... love black... drive a black, albeit the limited Columbite Black, 2009 W211 right now in Avantgarde trim, without AMG package. And in combination with a non-AMG W212 I would opt for Obsidian Black too.

I'm in the market now to buy a new MB. I will most likely stick with the E-Class (love the Coupe but that's a C-Class really) and will opt for a more aggressive appearance this time. White is a favorite, especially since Diamond White - at a hefty premium - has now become available on the sedan as well, but lowers the resale value here in Europe. So I'll probably opt for Iridium Silver in combination with Avantgarde, AMG and pano. And black sports interior - as classic as one can go really. Make it a classic "Silberpfeil"(Silver Arrow). Uber classic I know, but the pano and AMG will add a nice touch.

Enjoy your W212. I'm sure I will.

 

There are two feelings for the Black on Black and Other color on Black interior. For the Pan. roof and AMG package, contrasting color will always keep the most attraction everywhere. For the black and black, I just want to enjoy by myself or my passengers. For my car, I will change the front grille to C207 style, Change 20" wheels, Modify all yellow light to white Led and add some chrome accessories. I think Black with chrome that should be nice. Also, black on black have secret feeling :]

Enjoy 212 !!

 

Calcite white definitely looks awesome with the black panoramic roof and the black interior. Go for it!

My 2nd choice would be iridium silver or palladium silver.

 

Hi all i saw an Obsidian Black Coupe in a carpark here in uk and i thought the bonnet had been speckled with paint but it wasn't it was the primer showing through it had millions of stone chips god knows where it had been it looked awful and need of a respray after seeing that i would never own a black car

 

white with panarama is bomba

 

I ordered white exterior with black iinterior and panoramic...

 

I've choosed blue, with AMG and Panoramic roof it is amazing

The color inthis picture but without Panoramic roof

 

What is "Calcite" White?

This is the one that one me over::

 

What is "Calcite" White?

It's the "real" name for what MBUSA renamed "Arctic White".

 

:thumbsup:

 

I went all black. Except I couldn't get the ash black trim interior, so I "settled" for the brown one. Looks great still.

 

Iridium Silver very nice color

 

I went with white + Pana roof...and glad I did it!!!

 

Silver + pano is a great combination. It makes the front and rear glass and roof look like they are all seamless.
