+1 in this group. Give me a stock Morning Frost White DBS I understand flat black on some cars but to me the sense of aggression and rawness that flat black paint carries along with it just doesn't fit a car like an Aston Martin.

It loses its luster because there's no real shine to the car anymore, but that is one stealth DBS! Especially that rear shot, the car looks gorgeous!

I'm not a matte black guy, but you could paint an Aston with rubbing compound and it would look better than 95% of the cars on the road

Saw a Bentley at my local country club (a small car show of sorts) last Sunday with similar treatment. Sorry about Iphone pic quality.

Love the car but matte colored cars look unfinished to me.
All blacked out wheels disappear instead of standing out.
Why spend big money to have an unfinished looking car rolling on wheels you can't see? Just so illogical.
Wow, exactly what I was about to write.

Matte Black cars & Black wheels = DONE TO DEATH.

*yawn*

I'm not a fan of all black wheels or matte black cars, but this looks very nice. It definitely could look better, but it's still nice for a matte paint job.
