The colour of my G55 is Designo Magno Alanite Code 044. I saw it on a C63 when I was abroad on vacation.

To be honest my favourite colour on the C63 is the standard palladium grey, its the right shade for that car and show's all the lines and stil looks classy and aggressive.

If you get that colour with the designo light brown, it will age well and be classy/aggressive.

I dont think the mystic blue is worth it to be honest. Maybe for an S-Class/CL AMG.

The C- needs a sportier colour. Dont get Matte it is a pita to clean and maintain.

If you lose the designo exterior colour your in for the late 20-'s prior to discount.

amazing argument couldn't of said it better if I tried. The palladium grey is breathtaking and I agree with Mo the designo color is too expensive I'd much rather have the CF. Whatever you end up choosing good luck with the purchase

Its paint to sample your looking at further delay and $12000 minimum. If you lose the designo exterior you can use that money to have the interior in carbon fiber. Also a light colour will show the lines better and the darker headlights will be more noticeable and so will be the black part for the front bumper. Do get the cf side mirrors and mulitspoke wheels in black.

This is how I would spec mine.
-Iridium Silver Metallic
-Classic Red interior + Carbon Fiber Package
-"AMG Development Package" - which includes a CF spoiler, red brake calipers, +30hp in performance and the AMG braking system upgrade. its 2,000 BD package, but not really worth the money if you plan to ever modify the car.
I have NO idea if the AMG developement package is available in the khaleej though.

If your brother still wants to go with the blue exterior finish, tell him to check "Lunar Blue Metallic"

Whatever the final outcome is, wish him all the best! and do post pictures, ya36eekum 5airha o yakfeekum sharha
