I think it looks awesome i love matte finishes. It obviously does not make sense to buy it from the dealership and get raped but either way i think the wrap makes the car look menacing.

I guess it's one of those things that you either completely love or totally hate. I couldn't buy a new car without a glossy finish, but that's just me.

That $8K for the wrap could have been spent on better mods like super charger demonstrated at SEMA. Black out package is not my style.

Yuck!!! It defeats the whole point of buying a Lexus......A shiny paint job. I hope whoever gets that car leases it, so at the end of the lease they can walk away, because the resale on that car will be Jack!

In south Florida there are quite a few matte or flat finished cars around. Mostly Benzes. It looks straight up weird. I can't wrap my mind around it. How can a car look good with a finish that looks unpainted? Or unfinished?
I've only seen one car like that where I thought it looked alright. That was a Murcielago. But it still had some kind of sheen to it. But it was bad. Sinister looking.
Hot rods and muscle cars look alright this way as well.
But a modern luxury car just doesn't look right unpainted.
Completely takes the newness out of it.

In my opinion a white car with chrome wheels is about as tasteless as it gets!!
