Guys my dad consider to get S350, i think that would be the best luxury sedan in the market now.
We got a big question and hard decision here
What should it be BLACK or SILVER ??
Why BLACK and Why SILVER ??
Any suggest will be very appreciated

I don't really like silver.. just doesn't appeal to me. Black is very sporty. Have you considered white?

the chrome around the side windows, slims and elongates the car in black. silver looks more chunky. unless you get the amg pkg. The body work stands out more in silver.
Black, black is my choice

I had like 7 black cars in a row until my Silver SL....it stays clean 4 times longer and really looks good with a sport package. Infact I think a silver MB with the AMG package looks more expensive then a black car which doesnt show the lines. Black is always a safe bet on any car though.

Yes yes i know... That's why i bought Silver SLK, but this is a huge sedan....
We havent make a decision yet... And confuse about this
I know Black will looks more elegance, formal, and very shinny just when its clean
But silver always looks clean anyday
I never seen silver S personnaly
But i think this could be a very hard decision
Anyway thanks man

AMG's always look better in silver. MB always marketed AMG's in silver, until recently where they have been using white. especially for the new c63
Large air intakes which tend to be black spaces are offset well with silver or white.

silver, the body work is much more prominent. you dont really notice the side vents in the front apron in the black car.
Are you going to change your rims to 20's, you might need to as the kit alters the cars proportions to the eye

17" wheels with an amg kit on car this large will make the whole thing feel like tofu cheesecake.....like something is simply amuck!
note that sport pkg wheels on the S550 are 19", standard S550 wheels are 18"

I think Grey or Silver is the way to go if you have an AMG Body Kit.
White is very beautiful, but I personally like the silver / grey better.
Thing about black - I believe everyone is in agreement, it looks better in standard body (NON SPORTS PACKAGED / AMG).
My mate has an S550 sport in black and he doesnt notice the airdams like mine - and it is impossible to keep clean. Impossible (unless you wash it twice a week and use the triple wax option)

Black on black. But all of our Bangkok cars are 'silver-grey-sort-of' as the air there is not all that clean and black would not do well.
Don't get white on a S.

Let you know, we wash our car twice a day and wax at least once a week here...
Dust everywhere
Just afraid silver will not make the S class looks luxury
