Come on - when do you see a car with a dull finish except in the army? The finishing looks ridiculous on an otherwise great car. The rims and the seats look great, but the carpaint... I don't like.
I think I'll have to take a shot of a Ferrari 430 cabrio here in Dubai, it's painted a nice graphite matte, and from the look it could probably be a soft-touch paint. It didn't look ridicolous at all, it was a very exclusive model indeed.
The world hasn't to be necessarly glossy and shiny, some of the finest jewels are smooth, delicate subtle shades of colors and shows a well balanced contrast of dull surfaces and glossy details.
Dull paints have being used quite often on sport motor bikes, to enhance their aggressive attitude and look.
