It completely takes away the overpowering class of the phantom.
Totally agree! I love matte black but that looks like crap.

I saw this phantom and that matte bllack lostus in erson today at the motor4toys car show. They were both painted by a company called specialtycarcraft in losa angeles. The phantom and lotus look really good in person and ive personally seen the lotus and spoken to the owner many times around town. The phantom is appraised at $750,000. The paintjob costed $50,000. They bake the pain for 3 days so unlike other matte black cars, if you touch it, it wont leave finger prints. It has a very textured finish, and the interior of the car has baseball-style stitching. the phantom wasn't really my taste, but the lotus was really nice. I spoke to the owner of the body shop company, and got his number if anyone is interested. They specialize in custom paint, collsion repair, wheel repair for exotic cars.
AND YES, FOR EVERYONE WHO IS GUESSING, THE OWNER IS ARMENIAN!
