I really don't think yellow is the right color for the SL.. the whole essence of the SL is to be graceful, classy and elegant.. I think yellow should be reserved for the SLK at most..

a yellow SL.. is like a yellow S-Class.. it just isn't right..

if one wants to stand out.. imho red is the way to go.. very sexy color on the sl.. not for everyone though..

ewww... why would you spend $180k on something that would get you pulled over more than you actually drove it?

plus it looks bad

That's an awful lot of yellow paint.

I'm sure some 1st round draft pick will put some spinners on it.
