Yeah, it did have a few dings. Pretty minor, but they were there. I'm hoping that I'll think it looks like a new car, since I was about 3 seconds from getting an 03 CL500 yesterday....

maintenance and issues are reDONKulous! There is a reason why the
resale value on MB's are one of the worst. It will spend more time at your
local dealer or indy shop than on the road. I've owned two in my past
and they both fell apart around 150k miles. The benzworld forums are a
lot different too, you will not find the same support. Glad you are sticking
with the SC

pray to god that those little scum bags don't come back and screw up your new paint job....BTW, I like that dark blue color on the SC, I have only see a very few with that color. Stick with the OEM paint code and make darn sure you get a talented guy mixing your paint and spraying it!

I heard some liquid splattering on the ground on the cross street where I live (I'm right at an intersection) kinda late one night, I was out shining up the 66 for a car show the next day. I looked up and a kid was walking and taking a ****. His friend thought it was funny, but I didnt so I said something to the little lucks (take out the "L" and add an "F"). They come back with all this profanity and foolishness and went (actually ran) on about their way. The next morning my car and my GF's car (99 GS300) were all scratched to hell. I cant say they or he did it, but I've been here for 6 1/2 years and have had 30+ cars since I've been here and have NEVER had a problem. My 6'5" 290lb frame isnt intimidating to some of these kids/teens, so I guess I'll have to keep my Mossberg within arms reach for these little sorry sum(female dog)s.
But hopefully it'll look really good when its all done.

Lmao, it probably was a poll on SF. Don't get your feelings hurt, I actually like Baltic Blue on MKIV's ( Hell, I painted my car Monkey ****** Brown), It's just a personal observation that at least a half a dozen Supra owners Ive talked to at Florida meets either hate the fact that their car is BB, or have repainted them a different color.

Well since this Baltic Blue keeps coming up...
Can anyone tell me if there is a difference between Baltic Blue and Opal Blue Pearl Metallic? Does someone have a paint code for this Baltic Blue?

Color is so rare it doesn't even show up on this site

Can't wait to see it painted sorry about the reason you had to get it repainted though

Well it looks like 752 has two different names then. I have yet to see baltic blue listed as 752, thought I'm NOT saying you are incorrect. It stands to reason though since the Lexus website says my car is baltic blue when i put the VIN in.
