Yuck, Yuck, Yuck!
Saw a similar one in Fletcher Jones the other day. Green with the full treatment including the rear. At least this Bozo kept the AMG rear for the most part. The one I saw had the Lorinzer rear and it was beyond disgusting. In fact, most of the "plastic" women were even turning up their "redone" noses at it.

Guys Come On, its not really that bad, Imagine........
hey i think it looks nice EXCEPT with that shark fin looking side what ever you may call that and the side skirts nontheless its ok for me. i mean imagine an Alabaster White SL55 with those turbine lorinser rims, dropped down to like the picture attached (by the way ITS chizler's car and not mine, chizler, just borrowed your car as an example what lowering should be, not too low and just enough that give that awesome looks, simple yet striking) with the panoroof as well as charcoal interior or ash interior with Black wood trim and upgrade those Xenon head lamps (direct bolt on replacement) with the new PIAA Cobalt one that produces 6600K and there you go, a simplicity at its best, that's for me though. Also, don't forget some of those few bolt on change like the exhaust system, little ECU recalibration, air filter and hoooola, what a car what a car

FUGLY. If you drive a car like that you ought to have two Ho's on the street corner helping you pay for it. Oh, and don't forget your gold 'vette chains when you take her out for a spin either.

That's doin' a little too much. I would have taken that $ and made the car faster, not uglier.

"Camo" SL
:p Saw it. I think the white one on Ebay is uglier. But then my wife almost couldn't stop laughing when she saw the "camo" SL. People with too much money . . . Of course, there is always the one on cars.com that is completely chromed.

It also depends on the photographer...
This Lorinser SL on the other hand looks pretty good : http://www.auto-motor-und-sport.de/d...otoshow_detail
How come?

I'VE SEEN THAT THING. At first I didn't realize it was camoflauge but but what were they thinking. But hey, if you have the money and want to stand out, why not? I mean for the SL65 Camo. This white SL 55 is really ugly.

Something wrong with the look of that one. But if you like it you've just saved some money customizing...
Actually a couple of quick changes and it would be fine, if bought right.
