I'm trying to decide whether to go for a '06 W203 or wait and buy a W204.

The dealer is offering a really good deal for the W203.

There's a limitation on choices of colors atm and the dealer is pushing this color called 'Diamond Black'. Is this color any good? I mean... I did see it and it seems like a very deep blue navy color under sunlight and black at night.

Just wondering how popular this color is versus silver, white and black.

Thx.

Hi skiordie, i don't know if i have seen that color in real life (cause it's very similar to ordinary black to tell the difference) but judging from this photo i found it looks good:

Diamond Black looks like a mirror-like surface, very nice.

If you don't mind blending into the crowd of black cars on the road, it could work really well. My personal choice would be a white because it's not so common a colour (in my country, at least). I won't get silver.

Looks good!

Just wishing that the new W204 had that W203 back lights. New ones IMHO sucks.

I think it is - especially with these rims too.

LOL @ carwimmer430!

With those snow covering the hood, any benz would look kewl. LOL!

Yeah, I remember seeing those rims.

Looks really nice.

This is a picture from last winter. Right now, we have no snow here.

We've had a couple of D-Blacks here. I like it. The dark blue metallic flakes really show up in direct sunlight. At dusk and night it looks black.

I like the Diamond-Black, too. Every second C-Class at our dealer has this colour!
