At the Frankfurt Motor Show, BMW will introduce a special model based on the new X6 – the BMW VBX6 Vantablack. This exclusive show car is the result of a collaboration between BMW and Surrey NanoSystems, the inventors of the Vantablack technology.

The first generation of Vantablack introduced by Surrey NanoSystems in 2014 absorbed up to 99.965 per cent of light, almost completely eliminating reflectance and stray light.

I hate how they've made the grills so big on the newer models

What happens when you wash it? As with most flat paint jobs, rubbing, wiping or brushing causes it to become more glossy as it smooths the finish.

You gotta be dumb to buy an x6. Cant go offroad and too tall to drive as well as a 5 series.

Exactly. And why is it chrome? If the point of the car being BLACK is to make it black then delete the damn chrome. I ordered a 2019 Tahoe for work and paid extra for the "Black Out Package". Damn thing shows up with chrome all over it.

Not sure but that rendering in the OP looks like some 6th grader did it using MS paint

How can you say "hey look at me?" if they can't see you from 18 blocks away?

This stuff freaks me out

The new grill is lit (literally - has lights in it a la mercedes)

It strikes me as a color option more suited to a Lamborghini than a BMW.
If anyone has ever seen anything IRL wth a similar coating it is downright mindbending.
