what colour do you think looks best on the c63?

i know colour and specs are personal and each look nice in their own way but i used to think black was the best colour for the car but now i think

1.white

2. palladium silver

3.black

4. silver

their are some colours that i personally think are a no no like the beige or the baby blue or the green.

what do you lot think?

Personally i think Palladium is the best colour but then again i would ha ha

I did contemplate White but my only worry was that if i kept the car longer than 18 months White may have been a fad and out of favour with potential purchasers.

The biggest problem with the Mercedes is that unlike BMW and other manufacturers they don’t offer a Black Chrome Option, i think a White or Black Car would look much better with all the Chrome blacked out.

Agree that there are definitely some no go colours though

I guess the colour order for me would be

Palladium
Black
White
Silver

Are you ordering a new car?

+1 for Palladium!

I would assume its the easiest to keep "looking" clean. It also looks good whether you have the 18" or 19" wheels, and the chrome suits it.

just taken delivery of a palladium silver c63 with black leather.

the funny thing is that i didnt really like the colour when i first seen it but has grown on me to become my favourite.

even when it is dirty it still looks clean.

are you changing yours soon?

Was looking at the E63 but the front of it just doesn't do it for me!

Will wait and see what the Coupe looks like although i have got used to the 4 Seats and 4 Doors now also doesn't look too flash when you turn up somewhere.

Still loving that exhaust note too much as well ha ha

For what it`s worth , I like the Fire Opal red on the C63 with black leather like the early Press Car .

I would imagine it`s pretty rare too ( a bit like my Imperial Red C36 ) which still polishes up well .

i quite like the front of the e63 but i think the rear quarter of the car doesnt look right.

they have said that they wont be doing a e63 coupe or even a e63 cab which i think is madness.

hopefully they will change there mind.

I'll go out on a limb and say that I think the touring looks better than the saloon...??

Love the C63 - am very jealous of you guys!

There is a White Touring locally, looks very nice and very practical to boot if you'll excuse the pun.

I think the Audi RS4 always looked better in the Avant / Estate version but i think the C63 Saloon looks as good if not better than the Estate C63

I've just ordered my new C63 and feel I've really taken a risk - Calcite White with Sahara Beige (I love white cars and dislike totally black interiors!). I bloody hope they go together!

I've also gone for the Designo leather dash - it's such a shame they don't do it with contract stitching and I hope the leather is good quality matt-look stuff!
