A appreciate its an Rs500 limitied edition, stealth looking etc, but Fords decision to go with a matt black paintwork is beyond me Maybe its a marmite thing, but given the option of paintwork, id never have chosen matt black in a million years.

It isn't paint, its a 3M vinyl wrap. The cars were painted Panther Black from the factory and then wrapped.
