I don't like the Phantom with two tone either. I thought it would look ok, but on second thoughts, especially from these photos with such a stark contrast (black/light silver), it doesn't really look cohesive. On the other hand, and not to make it into another argument, I think a two-tone Maybach is much better, even with starkly contrasting colours. A single colour Maybach looks as nice, too.

It does make the car look smaller though. The all-black finish looks very imposing and impressive. I quite like it.

Oh yeah and the wheels do look better on that special edition one, which I think are the 'first' standard wheels. The other ones are optional factory wheels, I believe.
