It would depend on price, but all things being equal I would choose white. The diamond white has pearl in it, artic white is straight white. All three are good colors though.

White. It will be easier to maintain. My black supra scratches anytime some farts within a couple of meters of it. Never again will I get black (I should have learnt the first time).

Are you sure the white has performance package? Did you run a VMI? Those are not PP wheels. They are the fake ones.

The black 63 at Redline is beat up. All cars at Redline are beat up. He got that car from progressive motors in FL for $51k. I followed that car on Manhiem and Ive seen that car in person. The paint is all scratched up, the only good thing is that its got new front brakes.

100% sure they are fake. I hav had these whee wheels since 2008 and to me the fakes are totally different. Where to start, spokes are too straight, angles of the spoke are way off and the real amg have a thicker lip.

Post a close up pic of the wheel in the w221 section and im sure people will tell you the same. However, when you get the car, look on the hub of the wheels to see if you have the mercedes star, serial numbers, and made in germany stamped.

Congrats on the purchase.
