Taste is in the eye of the beholder, and judging from that repulsive, tacky, and overall tasteless use of black-out to the nth degree, one can reasonably surmise that the individual is free of taste, ergo tasteless.
Ralph Lauren???
Chris Bangle????
Jay Mays????

BTW, here is a 1930 Mercedes-Benz built for Italian race car driver. Care to comment on his choice of wheel color. It is part of Ralph Lauren's personal collection.

I have no doubt that M-B will not stoop to the requests of the gangsta wannabe crowd. The day that hydraulic suspension, under car lighting & curb finders appear under the option list is the day I switch brands.

You ladies sure do get your feathers ruffled easily.
Something tells me you both have mini-vans sitting on a set of 14" dope
black wheels with a bumper sticker that reads "My other car is a Mercedes".

i'm with you... the first time i saw photos of that car, my heart skipped several beats. it would be an injustice to cosmic order if, unlike, say Jay Leno, Ralph L. only warehouses and never drives his wonderful autos.
I've seen Leno around Burbank driving everything from an original '22 Stanley Steamer (not the damn vacuum cleaner, people) to a really minty-mint early 30's Duesenberg (hand-built to the hilt), parking it curbside and ducking into a neighborhood shop to bull**** about cars. He lives it, and has the good grace to share the sense of curbside wonder with the rest of us citizens; I can't respect the guy more. Now, could you imagine walking along (or pulling into a parallel parking spot) and seeing Mr. Lauren's black benz sitting curbside? WOW!!!

I think SuperC55's car looks cool. I love the hardcore unmitigated black/white radicalism. Chrome's cool, but sometimes you want to make a more brutal statement; SuperC's car does this quite well. The only thing I'd quibble over is that were it my car, I'd have left the rear valence where the tailpipes are black rather than painting it white. If the C55's different and doesn't black that part out on the AMG's, then forgive my ignorance.
I once saw a silver '00 vette with dark-tint windows lowered on plain, no-chrome black rims. It sticks in my mind as the hottest, "baddest" vette i've ever seen. The fact that it's a benz already bespeaks "high end"; the rest of the mods succeed in turning it into a mean machine.
Nice job. I love the suede headliner - you telling me that the C55's don't come with that as standard? That's pretty lame of MB, if you ask me.

Who do you guys use to host your pics, anyway?
And Francis, apparently you're still upset about that. Are you still sponsored by Uncle Ben's?

Dude, where is the picture of your car????
All talk and no roast.
If you could read, you could find a button at the bottom that says "manage attachments".
I looked at your earlier posts and they started out pretty polite, seeking information. Now you turned into a "hater". And frankly I find some of the comments are becoming insulting.
If you want to be a part of this board, I would suggest you be a contributor and respect other people's rides.
Until then, you are ignored.

Vadim, I'm really just teasing you a bit. The problem with you and a few others it seems, is that you get uncomfortable when someone calls a spade a spade, so to speak. I don't sugar coat things, but then again I will offer up praise quite frequently where applicable. I will post some pics asap- I thought you had to have some sort of online pic hosting to do that.
I'm the furthest thing from a 'hater' imaginable. If I had friends, they would tell you this.

Yep, I have an '03 alabaster white w/blue seat inserts and I love it. Thanks for the props. No mods yet, other than the flat AMG badge and clear side markers. I'll take some photos over the next day or so.
I gotta tell you, after seeing yours and several others I think the next thing in order is a nice set of wheels! My wish list consists of H&R's (which I actually had and sold before even opening the darned box due to my priorities at the time!), and perhaps the pulley kit.

The True OG Modded out W203
First time seeing this post and I can tell you that the rims are just plain filthy 
The wheels are OG, if you post it on another less conservative forum you will see a much more positive result(ex e46fanatics showroom section). I def would do w/out the tint on the tails though(kinda reminds me why I didn't tint them 2 years ago lol). Just need a much more aggressive kit and drop IMHO

I think the all Black Wheels are a new twist to the black-wheel-thing that is going on now. I think they rock! Personally, I don't care for the tails, but the car as a whole is unique and eye catching. I saw your other post with the Brabus Wheels; IMO, the Black Wheels are far better looking!
