That photo is from the European brochures (a number of them used that shot) but was photo-edited since the same car, with the same light reflections also appears with a red roof and rear deck.....I don't like the black over read myself - seems only to work on the darker cars and also the white (very effective for the floating roof).

That said, I was watching a British show called 'A Car is Born' where they get a wrecked Jag E-type roadster and rebuild it.....yesterday they did the paint...OMG!!!! I can only say that the paint now looks like liquid...it is incredible!!! When I, *cue dream sequence* get an SVX to drop a manual in ( I know, I know....you US guys are a bad bad influence!!) I plan to paint it a gunmetal colour they used on the Liberty (Legacy) and also some SAAB's....would love to be able to get the same result!!
