Matte black is over done, seriously its not that unique anymore the best matte black car I've ever seen was SS's Ford GT.

I always think flat black is getting played out when I'm on here but when I see them in real life I still love it.

Minus the decals...

Funny thing is I saw a flat black 599 with Hamann wing (or Novitec?) here in London today. And it had UK plates (599 00 something) - needles to say: it was SICK!

Flat black in pictures is not as impressive as it used to be but I won't lie, if I saw one in person (which I have never) I would get pretty excited.

I like it. Flat black may be plyed out on the forums, but it's still pretty rare to see one on the streets. I've only seen two: An Evo that a guy I know owns and about a month ago I saw a flat black F430 with black rims on the back of a flatbed.
