Brilliant Black is not brilliant

I thought it was just black, not metal flake.

I think it looks great over the boring standard black.

Look closely at the Bluish Purple, Green, and Silver metal flake.

It looks awesome!

I agree. My 04 Acura TL has a vivid blue metal flake in it. Looks rich.

mine's black as well. and i love the color. this is my second black car and for some reason the 300 just seems to need a little more cleaning cus it looks like it gets dirty faster. :/ eh. but other than that, i love this color.

not the best thing to see about your thoughts...
maybe it will grow on you...
and then maybe it will brighten up and shine with a little love and attention...
Stoked for you though on your car!

Oh yeah, now that think about it, I shouldn't had those mushrooms.


Seriously though, it sounds weird, but the flake are those colors. Weird, but cool.

Maybe it's because I'm a New Yorker and I fit some sort of suit stereotype, but I happen to like the black.
About the color in general: I only had my doubts when I saw a Silver Steel Charger- it made a futuristic-ish muscle car, yanno? Then when I got to thinking, any other color on the 300s makes me feel like some grocery getting hag.
And the glittery finish, I have to agree, is original. Plus, it should come in handy when the daily wear scratches start showing up... they look terrible on solid black cars.

Edit: the HP makes EVERYTHING better

IMHO, I am with vvv on this one. I too enjoy the metal flake and the reflection.

However, I also agree that the Chrysler color palate could be improved. I would like to see a deep wine/burgendy color.

I personally love the metal flake (when clean) but I wish they didn't use a grey/white primer with all the friggin stone chips this beast gets!!

That light primer is a real PITA. and on light colours, they use dark primer. Go figure.
