I honestly like Silver over black unless it is a boss of a car like the SL or S

Yeah, I'd prefer CLS over SL also but a lot of weight savings in an SL

Bingo! ... as others have said he can just paint it another color if color is the only issue...

but sounds like there is something wrong with the car, otherwise he can just paint it gray if black is supersticious and white gets to yucky in the icky snow

I just think spending $3000 on a paint job alone is not a good idea. Right now only thing wrong with the car is what I've listed above and you are suspecting that I'm not telling the truth, just think if I want to sell the car in future and buyer asks me why did I get it re-painted it'll be a lot of loops I'd have to jump just to make him believe lol and once again if I don't get a trade or anything like that I would dip it white lol

why repaint the car??? the plastidip just peals off? So if you get a white E55 your not going to get any speeding tickets based on your logic? I got a better idea paint it like a police car and your set LOL ROFL !

Yes. Three crashes. It was all because the car was black, nothing to do with the drivers. Are you serious? Hahahahahah.
