Exclamation what's your favorite color E55?
OK - I have to admit, a CLEAN black car is really stunning, but I don't think I could ever own one because they get dirty as soon as you start the engine

what's your favorite color E55 and why?

I currently have a white car, but have owned blue, silver, black and red... and while the white looks pretty good when clean - silver was the easiest to 'look' clean as much of the road dirt disappears on a silver car...

White, silver, or black get my vote.
I agree with TheVazha though, all the colors look great on this beast!

No color can compete with pewter so it's not on the list since it would be an obvious no contest. lol.

Is that why they didnt enter out colour into the poll cause we would just run away with it.

Pewter = Desert silver metallic. For me, its the best color. Sometimes color change by the lighting. Easy to clean taking care. I had a obesian black on my previous W211 and decide for pewter for my e55 because much easier to maintain.
