This was the autoblog's description of Terrain:

"Terrain is a sandy beige hue with a flat finish. It's not matte, but this paint certainly isn't reflective by modern standards. In fact, it's quite reminiscent of those wonderful old lacquer finishes from the '30s and '40s. (We can imagine a Ford Model A Business Coupe coming in the same color.) That's not a pejorative, as the SVT Raptor looks great in this decidedly industrial beige tone. Something about the Raptor's outlandish looks just works with the understated color."

This is the most confusing and mixed up description of paint sheen I have ever heard. Flat and matte are close to the same thing depending on what paint manufactures you compare. I have seen Lacquers that were shinier then clear coat, and a comparison to cars from the 30's who the hell was around to see cars in the 30's is this reporter 100 years old. :whymewhyme:
