Matte Black X1

I found those matte black X1 pictures while looking to cars for sale. Car wrapping become popular in Turkey nowadays. In my opinion matte black is not for X1.

I personally don't get the matte look at all. Wrapped or factory paint, I just think it looks weird.

See, i'm the other way. I'd never do it to my car but I think that looks great! I actually like that better than a lot of other cars that I've seen given the Matte Black treatment.

I saw a car being wrapped in a workshop, they are ripping apart half of the car I won't do it as well. What about those pink ones? Girls started to have their cars wrapped in pink I've seen an A5, a C class and a Range Sport myself. Those are also from Turkey

I do like the matte black color (although BMW latest frozen back color now is my favorite! but in the case of the X1 I agree with mozdal: it's nice, but it doesn't really suite the X1.

(Either that, or the silver spoiler and rims are "clashing" too much with the matte black)

Is it me or the perspective of those photos, but the Matt Black makes the wheels look really small?

I'd definitely like to see the Matt Black with some bigger wheels!

I am recalling the special Mondeo Pink limited edition. But that one was factory built. These looked primitive. Well, pink-coloured Lincoln... reminds me of Russia back in 90s where every gangster liked to spot his car with drop-shaped stickers on the car's body.
