IMHO Not a good choice for that car. The Body lines on a Ferrari are not ones that should be hidden. It’s like puting a Supermodel in a snowsuit.

I’m really wondering when this is going to be a factory option. I love how clean the really professionally done flat black jobs look.

If they are using zinc chromate then I doubt we will see production cars with flat black paint. Chromium in the +6 oxidation state is pretty dangerous, and scaling its use up to an entire fleet of cars would have very high costs associated with it (safety and environmental). Costs that I doubt the consumer would pay for. Maybe special editions of exotic and near-exotic cars where conspicuous exclusivity commands high appeal to potential buyers. That’s the real reason people buy those cars anyway-to feel exclusive or different.

For some people, yes, for a ton it’s because of the fact that it’s a hell of a car.

You can already order flat black though some special wish/individual programs, I meant I wonder when it’ll show up on the build sheets.

i know what you mean…but thats kind of debatable…if the paint job is done well i think it almost makes the body lines show up moreso than a gloss job
