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.

Flatblack doesn't look that good on the R8

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.
