IMO, they actually don't look bad painted. I wouldn't do it just because it's such a rare and classic car in just steel, but color can really bring out the lines. I guess the factory originally planned on painting some, if not all. Apparently about 1000 or so of the '81s were painted from the factory. There is a white one for sale in one of my duPont Registry's. They also made 3 (4?) 24K gold plated ones.
