GOLDEN S-CLASS IN GENEVA
Can you ever have to much gold? A question I’m asking myself as I go through the photo gallery of the newly revealed Carlsson CS50 Versailles. Based on the 2014 Mercedes-Benz S-Class, Carlsson covered the car in more than 1,000 sheets of gold leaf – a process that took over 200 man-hours to complete. The gold and refinements did not stop there however, Carlsson also covered 278 interior components with gold leaf as well, perfectly complimenting the champagne and dark brown Nappa Leather.

MBWorld Fanatic!
Can anyone say H I D E O U S? I was going to say UGLY, but that word just doesn't do it justice...

Former Vendor of MBWorld
We have some very unique customers from all over the World with unique requests, on some occasions there are those that really want something over the top. If this car on display was just a standard painted black S class most would walk by it like it was another car, but whether you love it or hate it, the detail and workmanship that went into preparing this vehicle are a true example of craftsmanship.
I was thinking that I don't know if we would have any customers here in the states that would do this, but then again I recall seeing many times from the Gold Rush Rally's Lambo's, Ferrari's, and a few other exotics fully covered in Gold, so perhaps this could be the Grand Marshall vehicle on a Gold Rush Rally!
