Alternative Suggestions on colour schemes

[Satch]

So we have had all these wonderful ideas on what looks good on a W211, but what I ask is the worst?

At risk of offending somebody I would suggest that in the standard range Travertine Beige with Pacific Blue upholstery must be right up there. But when you get to the Designo service the scope for disaster seems endless!

On the AMG factory tour a couple of months ago, they confided in us that they had done a complete SLK out in 'Barbie Pink' (Paintwork & Leather) for a customer - but sadly, they were not allowed to show us any pictures !!

Sky blue on an SL looks pretty naff, as modelled in some rap music video last year. Infact Maff pointed out that when they did a close up of the dash, they actually showed the dash from a Beemer.

In summary... sky blue / SL, it's not big and it's not clever.

You know, I kind of liked that colour on the SL in the Blu Cantrell video. Just looked so different compared to the majority.

Crazy really, I'm a black sort of guy with the Mercs

Oh well, each to their own I guess

mmmmmmmmmm - now you know the answer to that one!!!!

When I was buying my SLK, the dealer had a linarite blue one with bright blue leather interior and black trim - it looked awful - that was cheap and tacky looking to my eye. imho it did not work on the SLK and I doubt it would work on a bigger car either.

Worst combo has to be an E-class with Alabaster White paint and Pacific Blue interior.

I've yet to see a good looking White merc.

Well, white is not too bad in itself but I must agree that Pacific Blue is vile!

I can't see why anyone would want to order a new Mercedes in white, well unless it was being used as a wedding car!
