Default Magnetic Black vs. Super Black

Does anybody like Super Black better than the new Magnetic Black? The new MB is nice, but I think I like the previous SB better ...

Anybody agree?

I'm partial to the SB....it looks darker to me although both colors are fine. You can only really tell up close IMO.

Well ya obviously we all hate our black cars sometimes but it's worth it.
You can only tell close up but I like it better without the metallic flake ... it looks darker.

Does anyone have any pics comparing the two? Is it really that much of a difference?

And yes, add me to the SB club that hates the constant washing/waxing this color needs

I have MB but I think I like SB better.

There both good though, MB doesn't have too much metal flake so its not bad. I'm just not a huge fan of metalic paints.

I've had both and there's not much of a difference to me. You really have to get CLOSE to the MB and be in the correct light to pick up the flake.
