I agree! When looking for our first H2, we didn't care for the tan or gray interiors in the '03-'04's so I was very happy with the Ebony in the '05's and the little bump in hp/torque ....

.... when I started looking at '08/09's, I soooo wanted the new interior and I started looking at Denali trucks. All the low mileage ones were in the mid & high-30's. For a few grand more, I could have the "new" H2 and, after driving one, I had to have one ... sold the '05 and the search began. I looked at every ad in the Country at the time ... considered many, but really wanted the Ultra Marine Edition. There were literally only seven for sale in the Country and most had issues ... way over priced, high mileage, or bad CarFax/AutoCheck.

Brian,

Just to let you know...

the power tilt function was available in a few 09's other than the limited editions...

for example:

Cars for Sale: 2009 HUMMER H2 Luxury in Orlando, FL 32822: Sport Utility Details - 338200348 - AutoTrader.com




just to share.

Congratulations! Very cool colour! You're going to love the '08!
I agree about the tires, but I bet for the pavement, they can't be beat!

Yep, I had seen a handful of them with the power tilt. Your example even has the heated steering wheel. Great options and the same options with NAV, air ride and the 2nd row captains chairs would be a very nice truck. Though, I personally, could not justify the the $10k jump from the '08 to an '09 and I love the Bermuda Blue Metallic of the Ultra Marine Edition.

Yep, I am loving it .... even after two "road trips", Ohio to Atlanta after buying it and another from Atlanta to Myrtle Beach, SC and back in one day to buy my "new" Street Glide, I am still loving it.

You are right, on pavement the Goodyear SRA's are pretty smooth. I am on no hurry to drop $2,000 on a set of five 325 Grapplers ... !

I have a 2008 H2 that needed a touch up. I was told that the color was Bermuda Blue, paint code #WA214M. It is a chameleon color that looks blue or green or teal or black depending on the light source and surrounding area. Is this the same color as the Ultra Marine that you are talking about? Do you know the paint code for the Ultra Marine color? Thanks.

You are being told correctly ... the actual color is Bermuda Blue Metallic 214M. The code will be on the Service Parts ID sticker inside your glove box door. It will start with BC/CC U preceding the paint code ... 214M. This sticker will also list all of the options on your particular vehicle.

Ultra Marine is the name of the edition .... "Ultra Marine Edition". It does not refer to the name of the color. The same color was used on some Tahoes and Avalanches as well.

When I had my chrome hood grill "wells" painted body color, I took the body-colored side vents to him to color match with his fancy computer in lieu of using the paint code .... the match was perfect.

I am curious, what type of touchup are you doing?
