Because they want to sell you black grilles.

The frozen paint is great! You just need to wrap the car.

With regards to the options, I would argue that the dark carbon interior doesn't match the theme. Now, I may be blind and that could be the light carbon, so oops if I'm wrong.

Also, the chrome kidney makes sense with the bicolor wheels. I can't tell if the exhaust is blacked out, but that would seem out of place.

I think the kidney, wheels, and exhaust need to match. I'm not a fan of the few I've seen with black wheels and chrome grill and exhaust... just seems off imho.

I like chrome, I can not stand black grille. I understand the ideea but it will never work for me. Vehicle’s color and black everywhere is not my style. They should also offer a dark chrome option for colors like this.

Why does this car still have chrome kidney grilles?! every single exterior trim piece is black except the grilles. Seems weird that it would be spec'ed without black grilles

EDIT: guess i should have read through the thread first as this seems to be something that's already been discussed

Found this write up on frozen paint and frozen paint care - be sure and watch the video at the bottom.

I think nardo looks best on small cars, not larger cars like the M5

I like it. I feel like matte colors are overplayed. I'm trying to get my deposit back on the car as we speak. Drove the e63s and change my mind. M5 feels boring inside and out after seeing e63s and driving it. The M5 interior is really weak and looks like every other BMW including the F10. I feel like BMW was lazy with the design of the f90. The dealer is trying to fight me though in my 5k deposit, for a car that won't go into production for another month and a half. If worse comes to worse I will charge back the credit card.

The E63S looks just like every other Mercedes unless it’s a matte color. So, not sure what you’re escaping/benefiting by going E63S.

Watch the build date on the E63s. It is a great car, the interior look very spaceship like but the build quality inside is good not great.
I would wait for a 2019 model as is it getting a few changes.

Either way both are great cars.
