Hyacinth red/Cardinal red

Anyone own this color car in their w205s? It looks great visually but it almost looks too pretty for a guy to drive in.
Thoughts?
Cheers

This guy!
Dude don't even worry about hiding your ****, just hide you mbworld account from your wife.

My car is diamond silver which tends to be a more feminine color, but I love it. It's your Mercedes, and if you like wearing satin panties while driving it then **** em all.

I have a cardinal red GLC 43 and have no regrets. It is my opinion that the lighting, quality of camera and skill-set of person taking the picture are major factors. This is no different that the quality of a picture of a person by a professional vs. a novice photographer.
