............I agree. Same goes for all the 65's. Did the new 65 buyers just have no imagination?

Same goes with interiors on the 55's/65's, I think 90% of the ones I looked at had a grey interior.

I did see 2 red ones. One of them was Big Papi's but that looked hideous. The other one was OK...but I need something a little less OUT there (maybe when I was in my twenties, but not when I'm in my forties...no offense to anyone else...its just me).

A nice white or dark blue would fit the bill...

I've owned 5 AMGs, all silver or black. It's what the dealers order. I admire folks with the patience and dedication to actually order a car, but I think most cars, even 65s, are purchased from dealer stock and they're mostly silver or black.

I have a nice 65 in a color I have never seen on another sl65 or any other 65 for that matter. I get all kinds of compliments from people who love the color. Search the board or give me yor email and I will send you pics.

I think most are black because the car looks best in black. Next it looks good in silver. Does this make sense to anyone? Don't see many orange ones but maybe most people would not like it in orange?
