I have never understood the appeal of matte on vehicles. Always looks like they're unfinished to me.

It's a small percentage to be sure but some cars look fucking bad ass with a matte finish. Mustangs indeed are one, depending on the year and if it's been fucked with. And there are some more modern classics (90s Celica?) that can look hip in matte.
