Cool A Silver Car

I've seen a lot of pictures of CLK Black Series cars in silver, but, this has got to be the best pic of all ... courtesy of my young buddy Jason

The reflection of the sun makes the silver color stand out more. Great picture!

CLK63 BS, Panamera, Prius, Mini Cooper S
In my completely unbiased opinion, silver is the best color for the BS

Got to be retouched; the fender color looks like it matches the doors.

This pic is probably showing what you are referring to ... I don't believe the other pic has been re-touched, it's more likely the angle of the camera and sunlight.

But, since you post at least once on every thread in this forum , surely, you must have read about it at one time.

I guess if you read it here it must be so......

FWIW, I haven't noticed that mine do not match. The film has yellowed a bit on mine and THAT doesn't match....

Don't know, did I post in the thread you read it on? I'm just trying to make sure that someone here doesn't lead YOU astray that's all.....

I can't remember who posted the threads I found as that was last summer. But with all my research, I have found that YOU would never lead anyone here astray.

That's what I'm talking about.
I don't recall any posts about the color not matching on the fenders. I do recall a lengthy thread a couple of years ago about some people thinking their fenders look dented, which then led to a discussion about whether if you replaced the fenders would the newly painted fenders match the color of the factory nano paint. In any event, the paint on my Silver BS has always looked matching to me.

I know you're trying to wrestle that title away from me but the difference will be; I usually have something to add to the discussion.......

Thanks for the link, but doesn't seem like much of an issue from that thread

Judging by the reply with the Moe Howard eye poke, I'd swear that you were one of those uppity Porshe owners.

I know that I found it in another thread last summer, but I don't have the time to spend all day here searching.
