Am I out of mind?
About thinking about repainting the car in different color?
The paint on my car is in great condition but I just LOVE white cars.
It is currently Flint Grey and will be Baloon White IF I decide to pull the trigger.
What do you guys think?
I personally haven't seen any Baloon White color on E-class.

Flint grey I think is my most favorite color on the E211 AMGs and I was a little bummed out that it wasn't available for 06. With that said though, my recent obsession with white cars with tasteful black/carbon accents makes me lean that way. I will say though that if you're going for it, do a wrap so your car doesn't lose value.

Whatever we're tuning!
You ARE out of your mind Leo but just look what you have done to your previous BAD A$$ rides.
I like the wrapping idea better than a full paint job but ultimately it is what YOU want my friend.
I've got the performance covered so you can take care of the appearance!
LET THE FUN BEGIN!!!

you should consider wrapping the car in white so you'd at least have your flint grey paint still on the car if you decide to ever sell it
btw I love my white e55..I don't think I've ever seen a white E55 even in the Bay Area...many white E63s but never a 55

Thanks for inputs. and Nice paint Ras188.
I do like flint grey somewhat lol.
So right now I'm thinking in between.
I know I might lose money IF I decide to sell the car but I can make peace with that since upgrading to E63 was already not a logical choice but I followed my Heart
BTW, I don't know if it's possible to wrap it in balloon white, Never seen it done in vinyl in that color. Plus wrap looks ugly when you open the hood or doors
Just my 2cents

Balloon White FTMFW!~! One of my FAVORITE colors!
+1 on the vinyl. When you get bored of it, you can always take it off and retain the factory color.
DO IT!~!

White is def a show stopper, especially w/ the gloss black pano roof and pillars to offset it (not that I know anything about that ) but I think it would be waaay cooler to wrap it in a Mars red as the W211 was never offered here in that color. You sound like a show stopping kind of guy to me, I bet that would do the trick. Let me see if i can dig up a picture
Here, I didn't bother to read through this thread so I don't know if this is paint or vinyl but either way you ger the idea. However, this is no way an endorsement of this owners styling cues as I'd imagine he or she has probably been watching too much MTV and/or pimp my ride: https://mbworld.org/forums/wheels-ti...-red-w211.html

I absolutely love my Flint E63. Perfect color for the car as far as I'm concerned.
However, Balloon White is the best color Lambo has ever come out with. Alas, I still wouldn't do that to the E63. Keep it Flint.

Umm... after seeing that Red car, I am AGAINST wrapping the car.
So for now, I will enjoy the color for a while since I NEVER had grey car in my life.
And If I get bored with it, I will repaint.
Whichever way I go, I will be sure to post up my progress.
Look out for my build

I've always been tempted to wrap the CL in Mars Red, what do you think about that? I think It would look great w/ the AMG package and a black grill, I have a nice set of black brabus 3 pc monoblocks I could throw on it to complete the package, maybe next season...
