It could be many things, but I'd guess it's just someone who thinks it's cool to have matte black everything. I had a neighbor (who was a cop) who really liked matte black vehicles. It's not like it's illegal or anything. (Although, being a cop, he very well may have been a drug dealer also, so who knows?)

And isn't there some special paint that is the most light absorbing black possible?

I kind of imagine some Dale Gribble type driving it...
