It's just my opinion but it's too homogenized for me. I prefer the white or red car with the black out treatment as the contrast looks better.

It would look good on an unlit road, at midnight on a moonless night.

I'd go the full black and get black rims. I still don't like it much, but it's the most likeable ZB I've seen.

I'm damned if I can understand why people call the ZB ugly. I'd have that black one, but I like a bit of bling. Not a fan of everything in black.

Personal taste.
Members on here like SpitFire Green. On a Torana, yes. On a VF, no. But that is me.
I have friends who buy a Lexus every 3 years, because they like the look of them. my daughter likes the Toyota C-HR, and would have one if it was practical for her. I get blinded by their fuglyness.

I don't like black wheels, and I think you (Calaber) said the same. To me they were trendy in the late 60s/early 70s. Now, all performance cars seem to have them, and others think they look great.

Yes mate, I can't stand all black wheels but if they are gloss black or black chrome, with polished or machined highlights, and depending on the basic design, they're OK.

We disagree on Spitfire. I like it on the VF, likewise a couple of other greens such as Poison Ivy from the VE. Just happen to like strong greens.
