Here we have a stealthy Volkswagen Golf wrapped in matte black, seen in a ~~cold & faraway~~ developing area in east Beijing. This is the very first matte black Volkswagen Golf I have seen in China, and it makes the family hatch a hell of a lot meaner.

Wrap seems of medium quality, it doesn’t shine too deep, but is neatly applied over the bumpers and mirrors. Alloys are sadly standard stuff, gold would have been so good! The Volkswagen Golf is made in China by the FAW-Volkswagen joint venture. A few other interesting Golfs we met in country: pink-alloy Cabrio, pimped-red Golf, matte orange Golf, lowrider Golf, pink Golf, blue-pink Golf, a Citi Golf, a pantzer Golf and a Bora-Golf.
