Where did you get that info from?

I just checked their site, and the few models I checked, the A4 Avant, S5 and S6 did not have matte black as an optional color.

I just kind of noticed that all the cars that look good have their pics taken at night/dusk/darker setting/inside. All the pics outside in the sun just look like the car is primered. That Phantom pic, taken at night, would probably look sweet. But in the day it looks meh.

black chrome or brushed aluminum Grill and side mirrors would look nice.

yeah these are from the "behind the scenes" of the real photoshoot.. which I would guess are incoming. my first impression on this car was, damn, this is ultimate baller. I mean, doing this to a Phantom just really screams "money means nothing to me".

Every time I see a flat black car I get the urge to grab a piece of chalk and go to town.

I absolutely HATE the flat black fad.....so I was all prepared to murder that car in my post here.

Problem is, I actually kinda like it.

OK, so that makes exactly one car I think looks good in flat black. That's enough.

matte black w/a clear coat is what makes them look good.
