Zaphod Beeblebrox would have liked it.

He'd probably have driven off in it.

Then crashed it into the sun....

Its hideous, If you look at the other pics the inside of the doors etc is they are red too, complete after thought. Gt3 looks good though(is its a GT3?)

That's the point, though: it looks ok on a Porsche, ridiculous on a Golf GTI.

I saw a matt black suped up M5 driving through Knightsbridge a while back by a bunch of Arabs, looked like a very expensive and very cool. Manufacturers will offer matt paint at some point and when they do i'd be first in line, done properly at the factory it would look immense (with matt grey wheels!)
