It was in the Beverly Hills service drive like a week ago but wasn't written up for anything. I'm guessing it will be in soon for a service or recalls. I'll snap some photos next time it comes in.

I would like to know who's car it is also. I have seen it a couple times and the first time I can guarantee it was not Pharrell, but i will not rule out that it is his.
Here is a pick I took of it last week valeted outside a party at Paris's beach rental.

Those purple wheels look very ridiculous. They ruined those Brabus wheels. They should have been finished in black or dark grey.

Brabus + MB = Match made in heaven.

It might be the car of some pro skater guy, he also has a matte Brabus CLS K8 with the rocket front end. The CLS was in several magazines and shows. This is just a shot in the dark but he might of upgraded to the SLR.

Second- stop hating on the guy. If he had BLACK wheels (which, personally, I probably would have done myself) he'd be JUST like all of us on here. We ALL have the SAME taste. He's got one-off style.
When you pay almost a half mil for a car, you'll put WHATEVER the hell you want on it, and not give care what anyone else thinks.

First of all, the wheels are BLUE, NOT purple.

matte black SLR
i saw it yesterday, at a party of the owner of the "bebe" company, in beverly hills. since i know that the owner drives one as well, i presume, since this one was parked right out front, and the owner would have his cars in his garage, that the car is one of his sons' cars. yeah, those rich people.
it looks absolutely fantastic. the blue is pretty cool as well. i've been wanting to do this to a murcielago for years.
cheers
