There is a difference between a matte finish and a primer finish.

The matt paint option for the Murcielago is $28,000; for the Gallardo it's only $26,600.

I understand that there is a difference in the actual paint jobs. But the looks of both are defined as being "dull in appearance". That is what I was pointing out.

yeah, that's a dealer/ factory price tag on a paint job. i'm willing to bet the paint itself is far cheaper.

Something about matte black turns me off, but some of those other matte colors actually look pretty good.
