I know, that's one of those things that's really gonna keep anybody from buying it!! He was asking 18.5K for it with just over 100K miles on it.

A two tone paint job on a bubbly car like these, with no definitive place to break up the colors isn't my cup of tea but I've seen way worse. You guys are taking offense to it as if it were green with pink zebra stripes. Is it even an amg?

Coolant resevoir is on the right side on our cars as well. Maybe that's a pic of an S55? I have never seen one up close but the front end looks long so maybe.
