Midnight Blue G55

I am about to buy this G55 and am having second thoughts. I am a black or charcoal kinda guy but can score a really good deal on this truck. What are your thoughts and opinions? Should i hold out/or pay more for a black or charcoal one? Or steal this one a run with it?

The color is paint code 904, midnight blue.

Thumbs up

That is a very nice color, especially for a G55. It is very rare also. I would definately buy it if you can get a good deal. There are too many black ones out there anyway, its nice to be a little different.

Obsidian Black FTW

If you like it, then you should get it.
Do you know if this blue has metallic in it?

I think this blue looks a bit more interesting (not serious though) but MB does not offer this color in States

Stick with the Black... Mine's an 08, black exterior, porcelain interior with black wood...looks great with a little tint. Dealer even offered me a buy back for my 08 once my 09 arrives, since he knows that he can easily flip the black one.
