White ...the right choice?

[KevF]

Thinking seriously of a Calcite White C63 with PP2 with red calipers and 19 inch AMG multi spoke wheels.
Will be wrapping roof section in carbon vinyl to match the AMG csrbon exterior option.

Now I think it will look great but on mentioning to the wife, got comments about being a pimp and looking ste..

I have now spoken to a few people and wife is not alone....

Not that I buy a car for what others think but will I be stuck with a hard to sell car in 3 years time?

Next choice would be Obsidian Black........

While a lot of cars look good in white - including the C63 - it seems very much to be flavour of the month - who knows what is going to be trendy in 3 years.

White wouldn't be my own choice - but then again I think it's better than the bland bland bland silver picked out by 90% of Merc drivers. The black I can take or leave.

I agree with the silver...not even on my radar..that leaves red or dark grey (may as well be black )

white does look amazing on the c63 amg in my opinion.i had my white one on a 58 reg 2years ago and it still seems flavour of the month 2 years on.

Hey, Kev, let's face it, you're not really making a choice are you? Not in the sense of deciding something for yourself. They're all white. Or black. Or grey. How about a Cypress Green one? Or Sahara Yellow? Deep blue? Inca Red? Personally I'd like one in 501 Orient Red and light brown plaid cloth trim. No spoilers. And certainly none of those silly exhausts.

Carbon wrap roof... are you going to sell drugs out of it?

Don't get the white thing, sorry. Think it may be a passing phase. Only works if you live in LA or Dubai!

Hmmmmm...so not Normal for Norfolk then..


Still think this looks stunning with the brake upgrade.....

Wollyback - another dr520 owner huh ? very nice

White suits the c63 very well as illustrated by palmballs one in the above pics.

Personally I think the white C63 looks stunning. Go for it:-)

The only time I'd advise against it is if you don't keep your cars pristine but I'm guessing with a sparkly white C63 on the drive you'll be out with the sponge daily:-)

If you go for white, make sure you spec the 19" black wheels; they make the red calipers look even better!
