Mercedes Color Code 462 H Tunis Beige Metallic, is a color that was available across most Mercedes models during the 1960s, the big 600 sedans were even available in Tunis Beige. It’s an early version of to gold and smoke silver hues that would become popular in the 1980s. As we all know, liking or not liking a particular color on a particular car is a very subjective matter, as beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Anecdotally, I’ve heard of some people passing on a well priced pagoda SL in Tunis Beige because they didn’t think it looked good on the car. I’m not sure I’ve ever seen a Pagoda SL that I didn’t like, regardless of color. Our main subject car here is a 1971 280 SL in Tunis Beige, you can decide for yourself.
