I was always a fan of the Mercedes S-Class color Silver with blue pearl. I don't know what it is called but I think it would look good on a GS. The only thing is that the person spraying the car needs to know what he's doing...

I am also getting my car painted and I have tan interior. My choices where House Of Kolor ocean blue, House Of Kolor silver streak, or the blue/grey that Benz has for the CLK430.

Yeah that Benz color is Niiice!

Bluelex.... My favorite stock color is still the Spectra Blue and I haven't seen a black with the red hue before?

U know what's just simply the baddest color out there?

Midnight Purple II that's only available to the Nissan Skyline GTR.

It changes from blue in bright daylight, to darkish maroon in dusk/dawn to almost jet black at night.

AMAZING! But I think it will be just as hard to maintain as your current black.

That color is called Horizon Blue, and it is a nice color!

if you dont want to be too much out of the stock spectrum, stay with the near stock colors....with that in mind, close to white but a little off white with a blue or red pearl....now damn...thats hot!...
