Even if it were all original, $15,000 for a 200,000 mile 560SEL? HA!

Pink with a burgundy interior, why?

I'm going to give them somewhat of an applause for actually painting the car and not just masking it off and finding out the original color of the car was like blue

The quality of the pictures makes it impossible to judge the quality of the paint job.
