Flat Black Convertible M3! WOW!

This is ABSOLUTELY breath taking! I'm not big on convertibles but this thing is SEXY!! Not sure if I like the red angel eyes.

Meh... It's nicely done, but matte paint is lost on me.

Meh Matte black is so 5 years ago and the red angel eyes are just plain tacky.

Agreed, matt colours just look like primer, making the car look like it needs to be finished off!

Besides the original "shark" frozen grey M3 I have never been partial to matte colors, but Id sport this black finish if it wasnt my daily driver. Would probably be cool once in a while. On the other hand those red angel eyes are not my cup of tea.

Looks like any other matte black car. Matte colours on completely stock cars look tacky and ridiculous..can't wait until this fad goes away.

One of those fads, I'm glad I didn't get tricked into. Red halos, that is disgusting.

Sorry but looks like it started out as the lifted Chevy 4 X 4 that a flat biller was driving and then got smashed.

Flat Black M3

This is interesting to look at, much in the same way as a zoo animal, but I would be embarrassed to be seen actually driving around in it.

I think the car looks fine. Kind of an east coast car. They always do things different or off the wall to stick out.

I would ditch the halos and put on the Akrym front bumper and KWs and this car would be sweet. Better than most on this site, in fact.

Any of you kids see the Sorcery flat/matte black NSX from like 8 years ago? Better looking than any E92 M3 on this site.. Meaning car needs a kit of some sort, drop, and better wheels.

Why being so judgmental about it? Who ever build that M3 is happy. Good job.

Matte paint colour isn't too bad really, it's the red halos that just scream "lame".

Definitely not my cup of tea, but to each his own.
