    Actually. That's not TOO bad. If it had black rims instead of gold plated it'd look better. But oddly enough, I don't think it's as bad as it could be.

    Is it plated or solid? Seems like an odd car to turn into gold.

    Well I guess it could be worse. It could have 24 in. spinners with diamond valve covers.

    how will that wear? what's the care and feeding for wide swaths of gold like that? i mean, i assume my wedding ring stays non-gross cuz it hangs out in my pocket most of the times and gets buffed and whatnot in there. but exposed to the elements and whatnot?

    is there a zymol gold yet? :)

    I actually like it. The gold wheels are a bit over the top but I like the color.

    It's gilded, not plated. They used gold leaf.

    Yep, it's official, that diamond (?) encrusted Benz is now the worst thing I have ever seen (car-wise). That's just a crime.

    Wow... I guess that's what too much money and too little taste looks like.

    I wanted to sum it up with "tacky", but that description best fits my exact thoughts.
