The painted one isn't a MAX? or it is?........ One of the easiest way to separate a NG from a MAX withouth its engines is by looking at the tailcone. The the MAX Boeing har dropped the classic 737 tailcone, and gone for a version that looks a little like the one on the 787

Thanks! I hadn't looked properly on the engines though, they are missing...
I don't really get it then, how come a painted 737MAX can have a final registration already?...... (and why with no engines?....) The MAX though isn't certified yet?..
