Too much Bling??

Reminds me of a 3 series BMW I nearly bought once because it was so much cheaper than other colours. Lucky I changed my mind when somone at work pointed out I would look like a pimp.

Those pimp paint jobs are quite funny, In some cases they can be ok... But I hope they will use the gold shader in a tastier way in the future... More like a ribbon of gold or some mechanical parts in gold or chrome, instead of dipping everything in a gold bath. Ships and vehicles painted in gold like that look more like giant trophies, than actual vessels.

Yeah a red and gold paintjob would look nice

Good lord!
Someone, somewhere thought to themselves "this would be a great idea". A person that could think that is not someone that I would feel safe around.

the fact they have a drivers licence is the really scary part.

The nearby car was registered in Sheffield, South Yorkshire. Sun is not a risk.

Or the reflection of cars in it that could trigger dangerous reflexes from other drivers when they see it in the corner of their eyes... !
