I saw a pic of our 300 with this paint job and it looked awful!!! So bad that Touw said to repaint it all white when he saw it... Last I heard they were still working on a new paint scheme.
There is a reason behind the madness, but I kinda like the solid white paint job too! It looks good in person, kinda pearl white looking.
