I no longer own black cars for the same reason, just way to much care and maintenance to keep it looking new. I was torn between the 2 matte finishes but feared what the grey poplar would like like with tartufo sight unseen. So I went with the safer choice matte black. I like it I'm not in love with it. Would rather have a little more contrast but so far so good.

It looks great because it doesn't add color/noise to the dash which now looks like one congruent black entity with popping aluminum trim. It's a very clean and sleek look IMO.
