Id have to weigh in here and say that if you are going to have your wagon re-finished, and you want a darker blue, go with DB904- Midnight Blue.

My previous 300DT was this color, and it is simply stunning. In certain lighting it appears black, in direct sunlight it appears a rich, creamy, deep, dark Navy Blue. It is a color that lends it self to highly satisfying reflective qualities, and appears quite handsome. I must say, that if you do go with this color, you should have pin-stripes added in a tan. They lend a very subtle contrast to the
Midnight Blue paint, and also slim the car in appearance from all perspectives. Seems more often than not W123 cars were sold with pin-stripes here in the U.S., I love them.

At any rate, I hope you have fun in choosing a color apropreate to your liking, and PLEASE post pics of the car when finished!
