A pink Mercedes-Benz C260 sedan, seen at a car shop in north Beijing in 2016. The Merc’ was wrapped in a shiny pink wrap, sucking all the sun out of that chilly spring day. The car was further sexed up with a black grille, darkened light visors, darkened windows, and shiny chrome mirrors.
The wrap was of good quality and neatly wrapped around the whole car, including the bumpers, roof, and door handles. The window frames and the B-pillars were in black.
The W204 Mercedes-Benz C-Class was manufactured in China by Beijing-Benz. Production started in 2008 and ended in 2014. It was the first China-made C-Class and it had the same wheelbase as in the rest of the world. The long-wheelbase L-versions arrived only in 2015 with the 4th generation C-Class.
The interior was left unchanged, here with classy black leather and wood panels in the doors.

Minnie was dumped behind the headrest. Makes sense, she wears a red dress, not a pink.
