Helo,
Is it possible to know how many units, from the facelift series, came out with the combination Silver Exterior/Blue Interior as shown on my data card?

Nice, a fellow galaxy blue interior owner. Do you love it? Mine is sapphire blue exterior. Not sure on the numbers but I believe less were made than the red leather, yellow leather, grey leather et al. because I rarely see blue interior models for sale and the blue interior parts are direct from Mercedes 4-5x the cost of the other color leather parts. Anecdotally, a Mercedes service advisor just asked if I had done the blue interior myself because he had never seen one before!

Hello J,
Sapphire blue is a great color.
At the beginning it was a little hard to like the blue interior because all my references were the red, the black or the beige. I even thought changing some parts to black and leaving some in blue, but then I realised that the blue was uncommon and it was better to keep it that way. Now I love it.

Sick car, blue looks great with the aluminum trim. Mine has the eucalyptus wood trim. Have you had your interior blue paint touched up? Looking to touch up mine and the blue is hard to source in the usa for some reason the german company I contacted can’t ship it here.

On a 21 year old car? Not likely anyone will know. We're lucky to be able find numbers of cars sold let alone colour combos

M4rCu5. I can not believe I have just stumbled over this post of yours. Where are these sales figures from? Worldwide or a specific country

I have just started this thread and any sales info would be extremely helpful.

And I actually like the blue on blue. Looking inside that it reminds me of the Fiat Coupe's

MBSLK is a useful forum, their navigation could be better and having auto-translate switched on helps a great deal :D
