That looks terrible. I hate the look of vinyl wrap and \ matt black paint...couple that with black wheels..I would rather take the bus.

Looks "plain-Jane" to me. Would you spend an additional $14K for this option, not me!

It looks plain as is... matte black can look nice PLUS it's different. not your usual silver SL...

I saw one of the nite edition cars at Brumos in Jacksonville. To each his own. In a word "fugly".

It looks like the 55 Chevy you painted hot rod primer back in H.S.

I don't get this new fascination with matte finish. I like my car to shine, not look flat as a 3 day old soda. To each his own I guess.

Porsche guy who drives SL63 w/ perf pkg AND perf suspension
I think the interior has some good details, But the flat paint clashes with the glossy black trim and pano roof. It fights itself between flat black and glossy black. Id rather see the (matte) white or some silvers than black.
