Soooooo...has it been established this thing is in Bahrain or somewhere close to it? Is this some sort of regional favorite color thing? I can't imagine this ever being marketed in the states.

The Ferrari, however, is stunning.

Yeah guyz, you read right, it says CLS 35, but as you all know, such a model does not exist. Its just a CLS 350, and this custom car dealership thought it would be cool to call it CLS 35 since it has the AMG kit. This dealership is called Montana Motors, and its in my home country, the Kingdom of Bahrain.

An aston Martin is a classy car it's not something that you modified or tuned or had flashy colors like this yellow.
My dad use to have a DB6 volante black and beige

mercedes does studies as far as which colors would suit the demographic areas. Yellow may not suit the taste of people in USA but it may suit those in another country. All the colors that may be available in the USA may not be available abroad and vice versa.

Woof!

I saw a picture of a brown one that I thought was UGLY. The yellow one is just as bad. (Just my opinion).

there are lots of reasons why some colours suit some areas and some not, for example: some countries view some colours as lucky and some not so, also don't forget the major reason - quality of local light - in Florida gold cars look ok but in the UK climate they look naff, likewise, white cars in the UK tend to look washed out... except of course early porkers.
