Its not really gold. More like metallic orange.

If you've got gold and it looks like that, you got scammed.

Not my color but...

Different strokes for different folks. I saw that on a web site from the middle east. I think it was a Dubai or Saudi car dealership. I have to imagine it was custom ordered that way. Will MBZ customize per the purchaser's request?
