Roof antenna Question

So I drove by a local dealer yesterday and they had a C63 out front in white. I have ordered a white one as well.

The roof antenna was black on this car. Is that normal? What color is it on other cars?

Is the "new black" approved by AMG? I still see my Silver listed as Irridium. BTW also with Iridium Antenna.

Is there any horsepower gains using a black antenna?

All irridium silvers such as my 2008 C63 have the color matched antenna, all the other colors come in black.
