Red is great to have on a classic European touring machine like this. The color is quite bold, but Mercedes also knows how to make it look upper-class. So we know you'll love the way this looks with the matching hardtop... in place. And some of us some of us particularly like the look of the soft top. Not only is the black folding roof a great complementing color to the red, but also it coordinates with the bumper guards, side trim, and full-length black pinstripe to create an almost two-tone appearance. There are even some nice Mercedes-correct upgrades along the way, like the trunk-mounted brake lights and the 15-inch polished alloys. And if you like the coordinated look this has with the black roof, then you'll love taking it down to showcase the full black interior.
