If i decide to have the car repainted black does anyone know if there is any difference between the stock super black and say a lambo black? Or is like black is black is black? Just wondering. I don't know if one appears nicer when the light hits it. THnaks.

im gonna guess and say the only difference is if it had a flake in it or pearl but on black there is really no point, i guess if you want it to always look wet i would just have the shop use more coats of clear. but i dunno.

IMO...it's only worth it to paint your whole car if:
[A] Your OEM paint on your entire car is completely jacked.
OR
[B] Changing it to a completely different color. If you can't tell the difference at first glance, I'd say it's not worth it.
Reason why I say this is because repainting your whole car will cost you $$$$ especially if you want it done right (i.e. painting the engine bay, hinges, etc...). More so if you decide on a custom color vs. a factory paint. You can probably get away without painting the engine bay if it's black but otherwise it looks a bit off. If you have money to burn, however, is all up to you.
