Is there a better place in the world to car watch than outside the casino in Monte Carlo?

That DTM looks sick in flat black! I agree, not feeling the cab.

why did they have to make it convertible. It's absurd if you ask me, the DTM was built for performance and speed. Why not get a regular CLK 500/55amg convertible and save couple grand.

cause when the weather is nice (as is the case in Monaco now) nothing beats a cab...

Plus it looks good with the top down

Looks great on the coupe. I've heard that the flat black is really hard to maintain. You can't treat it like normal paint, it needs special treatment to keep the flat black look. If it gets too much rubbing it starts to get shiny.

Flat or matte black seems to be the trend now. So we have an SLR, 599, DTM, 360, Phantom & Elise to name a few seen in this color. What's next? CGT?
