We are saddened to report that the German banker is no longer king of the hill, as he is not the target for sportscar makers. Ever wondered why automakers are offering factory matte paint and substantial cosmetic packages?
They can’t possibly be for the understated German banker, as it would be too flashy in the car park and he would get fired. Oh no, the automotive world is building cars for the new kids on the block, Arab oil tycoons with a passion for speed and adrenaline.
Case in point, this matte black and carbon-fiber Nissan GT-R that was spotted in Dubai. It’s only the pre-facelift version of the car, but it’s got enough power to impress your Lambo-owning friends. The matte paint also looks like it belongs in the desert, like something that’s weathered the ages and ended up as a battered but not broken brute.
