I've got the same car as you "before" picture excepting for the roll bar and the G on the bumper. I think it'd look like crap flat black but that's just me. I've seen some flat black cars & the paint never looks consistent on the whole car. Part if the problem I think is it's harder to keep it clean & looking good. You can't wax a flat black car for example.
Are you thinking more of "semi-gloss"? Thats what the paint seems to be on that Ferrari
I have seen it done to quite a few cars. I personally think that a flat black car that is blacked out looks tough as hell. I was actually planning on doing it this summer but it is really hard to keep a flat black car clean. You have to be very careful of how you clean them and what you clean them with.
GreyStang- If the paint doesn't look consistant then that is because the person who painted it doesn't know what they are doing. The flat black cars that I have seen done have usually looked ok. The few that looked bad had some ****ty body shops do their work though.

And like I said I don't think the paint on that Ferrari looks very flat

Flat black is the worst thing ever, it looks like crappy primer and like was said above it is hard to keep clean. A friend of mine is painting his 91 LX flat black and it is awfull, thats just my opinion
