I got a second SLS and I had to send it to the paint booth.
I couldn't do white so, I have to have it match mine 
I hope my son likes it and rides it... When he is old enough to what the heck it is! (6 mo)
Give a day to dry then will see how it looks.

Not enough head room for me in the Coupes. I'm 28.5 inches at 6 months today. My Daddy says coupes are for chickens! Plus, my Daddy still has hair and, we live in SoCal! Sunny... SoCal

I left a little chrome bling on the wheel centers.
Someday, I will try to find the exact OEM paint match. I will do that after his first couple of crashes.

Cute kid, Terrific toy for him.
Nice color on the Merc. My SLS roadster is the same color as yours, Iridium silver, but with a red interior. Perfect for sunny Florida.
Your son is right about the chickens <G>.

My lack of photography skills has fooled you! (and crappy 4 year old cell phone)
The finish on this car is Magno Alanite Grey (matte) not Iridium Silver.
It is the biggest reason I got this car.
It can look like Silver...
Grey...
or something in between...

My last car was a SL550. It was matte grey. I too love the finish and the low maintenance.
My 2014 SLS was the last silver and red in the country. It came in an enclosed trailer from Ohio to Florida.

I will paint any toy car for $9.99, no ups, no extras!
And done.
It's still his favorite zoom zoom
