There has been much discussion here about colour and colour schemes. This one epitomises 1950s stylng and colour - why can't I buy a new Benz like this?

The colour Tony - the colour!!!
I love the colour combination. The interior is special. I mean, who wants ordinary black or grey...bleach!

You can Dear Brian.

Mercedes Benz will build you just about anything in any colour as long as you are prepared to pay for it and wait for it!

It's probably the only mass production car company in the world that still does that.

MB did a continental kit on the W116 for the US market. Unfortunately it was on the back AND the front!! I think they called it their Pedestrian iSafety Guarantee (PIG) system!! Yuk......

I like the colour of the interior, but it seems it got outside! Silver and orange looks better in my opinion.

 

[Tony66_au]

Aww hell, why not go a nice Tiger Mica!

 

[Tony66_au]

Thats reminds me, I saw a W123 in 2 tone Orange and old english white and it changed the car completely.

I had to look twice to make sure it actually was a Benz and although the work seemed well done it just didnt sit well with me.

Brace yourselves the colour of this MB is going to shock you!!


Not a colour scheme this one is a colour scream!



See I told you would be shocked...

 

[BenzBoy]

Hmmm - kinda beats silver and white for eye-catching value though.

Why fit roll bars to a pink car?? and the car has no doors the hole in the grille is a good look!

Gee Barbie's car's really looking secondhand now. She must be the same, as she's not a spring chick anymore. Probably why's she's not in the pic....
