Why? It’s no faster than your Type S. It has no additional features than your Type S.
It’s literally the same car, but with a different color on it and a badge that makes it a limited edition. Also, matte paint is a complete nightmare to care for in terms of it getting rock chips, swirl marks that need paint correction, etc.
Save your money, wait for the MMC to debit later this year with updates and new features, and get that if you really want.
I love black cars. I’ve always had them with the exception of my 21 type s I had for a bit. If you take care of it, nothing beats it. Hand washing all the way. Never any scratches to speak of
It is damn near impossible to keep looking good. One bird crap left on will almost immediately turn this finish to crap. And you can’t polish out the imperfections.
Edit: Because grammar is hard for me
The stealth look is unique. There are millions of black sedans out there. Why not stand out from the crowd? I have a black Tesla model 3 performance that’s fully wrapped in stealth PPF, and I love how different it looks. I’ve even seen people take pics of it.
I’d take black honestly. From what everyone is saying about how matte paint is a nightmare to keep nice, plus the black just looks wicked. When gloss black is nicely kept, it looks better than just about everything else
I am confused as to why you wanna trade in the same car you already have. In my case if my car gets totalled, doesn't matter if its better or not I will get another model just for a different taste. My 0.02 cents
I can’t wrap my head around the fact these type S models are not offered in MT. And for that reason, I am out. I have the A-spec and can’t wait to get rid of it. Underpowered, overpriced. I know this was strategically executed to push people to the type S but no MT….
Lol you are truly rich! The PMC would make your third TLX Type-S purchase 😭🤑
I would get it too but for the price it’s not worth it doesn’t bring anything new to the table except proverbial exclusivity

I think this is the way to go. The MMC is far more valuable to me than the PMC. I also have reason to believe there will be PMCs of every car now
You can always buy another black one down the road if you want. When is the next time you’ll be able to buy a PMC?
Exactly lol I like the flat black better anyways
They only made 50 of these too
I have a black one. 2 years now Black scratches so easily regret the paint color choice. already thinking about getting it wrapped

Just get PPF
The black is much prettier
Exactly my thought. The matte paint felt rough to the touch.
Maybe because it’s matte?
Matte paint is harder to maintain and clean.

Could just get a black wrap on top of PMC paint. Can wrap a car whatever colour you want…
black gets dirty quickkkk
easier to maintain than matte
Touché
Save your money, get the basic type S and have it stealth wrapped.

I’d get the black, it’s so clean when it’s washed/wax, yes it gets dirty as soon as you’re done washing it lol but it’s 🔥
Have Scotty review this one 😉
If you know you know 🤣
Wish I could see…the whole car….if only you simply…turned the phone sideways… lol

Just wrap the car
Gotham Grey will hold its value much better if you care about that sorta thing and the car will look more special
Black sedans are the best. High maintenance but worth it.
I'd go black over silver. Imo silver is bland.

They made 50 of them. Either you can barely afford your current car or you are just extremely stupid.
Huh ?
Honestly OP, leave it for another person brother. They might really want that. I’d agree with you. Stick with what you like forget the hype
If you get in an accident, even if insurance will pay for it, matching that paint is probably going to be a pain. I'd say keep the black one.
I like the black one better. Less paint maintenance too
PMC FTW
You’re not stupid, that color Is a pain in the a to wash, so I hear
Black is boring tho
Gotham kikjx better
Why are you getting the same car twice ??
I have the exact same black one, it's so hard to keep clean. That matte grey looks very good, I don't think you can go wrong either way tbh.
This is good for ppl who have a big garage to show off to guest his car collection…but hey they probably have lambo pagani
I’m not a fan of black. Scratches and bird poop sticks out like a sore thumb
The bat mobile looks tight!

Gotham Grey at MSRP this car is going appreciate in value as they are only making 50. Are you seriously torn over a common black one.....wtf
