about 2 years ago I bought this 300CD in light Ivory. First picture. The paint was in perfect condition. But, I'm not a fan of beige so I had it painted Sahara Yellow. This color choice was worth the expense. I had to weigh the advantages of having a car in the color it came from the factory in vs having the color I wanted. (I'll have this car for life) I couldn't be happier with how this Sahara Yellow looks. The car was invisible before. Not now. I also added color matched hubcaps. I think they are a better looks than the bundt rims.
