Default Planning to get a new 2010 C300

Visited RBM today and looked at the C300. I still have reservations about the design, mostly the rear, but I am beginning to accept it. I have little to say about the colors available; 5 shades of grey, 4 tints of black, white, and mars red.At my age I can't tell the blue from the black parked side to side. We older folks probably don't even realize we bought a color; you might want to check your title.

I am opposed to owning a black car now anyway, maybe even superstitious. My black 300CE with black interior and wheels sat in the garage untouched like a casket for 10 years without a single scratch, then wrecked with only 3000 mi. I think the reason it got hit was because they couldn't see it.My black SVT cobra wasreally more of a "cop magnet".

Definately sport package. Definately manual tranny. White,or red?Hmmm.

Blue

Where are you located? Where you live makes a huge difference on what color you choose.

North Georgia. But I am leaning toward white.

Exactly my answer. Living where it is hot you want light colors. When I go to my other home in Florida I sometimes drive down. I own all black cars so it gets very hot. I also noticed they dont sell many black Mercedes in Florida either(gee I wonder why).
