Case in point, this matte black and carbon-fiber Nissan GT-R that was spotted in Dubai. It’s only the pre-facelift version of the car, but it’s got enough power to impress your Lambo-owning friends. The matte paint also looks like it belongs in the desert, like something that’s weathered the ages and ended up as a battered but not broken brute.

Mihnea's favorite cars have already been built, the so-called modern classics from the '80s and '90s.
