Arrow Flat Blue Lambo

A stock color in 2010 at a $20k premium. They say its a flat, but kind of looks like a satin. I like it.

I'm starting to like certain flat/satin finished cars, like this Lambo. Not all, but some.

Anyone know what kind of wax or protection they require?

I think I saw the same one, the salesman said it was just a wrap and it was originally white.

I like it. The light has a cool effect on the paint.

Looks cool , but I like my cars to shine when waxed. This is going to lose that ability, or at least it seems like it.



I want my 200k car to shine. will already stand out because it a Lambo

I am never fond of flat black at all, but this flat blue looks good on the lambo

I like that color a lot, but I would not pay 20K for it. Now a wrap of that color!

I sort of like the blue. Reminds me of a satin anodized blue.

Satin black is dead. Like spinners on wheels. Done!

I would still prefer gloss, probably Monterey Blue, like the D2FORGED car:
