I dont think there were any black R3's after 2009. After 09 I believe it was just AB and VR, then in 2011 they removed the AB color option

IIRC:

09- AB, BB
10- AB, VR
11- VR

Noooo, the 09 black R3 's are not BB. At least when compared to Cornholio135's BB 06' Shink and tbk's black 09' R3. The colors are significantly different.

Well, maybe it is like the VR's, the older ones seem to have a lot more Mica than the later models or it's like Mazda 3's have the same VR paint code as the 8's but there is a significant difference in the paint process and they are very different from each other (in the stages I think). My painter owns a VR Mazda 3 ( as well as my GF up until last weekend) and she was blown away at the difference when she went to pick up the paint from the supplier.

Why not? It gets people's attention and people talk about it. Last time I posted photos no one even noticed them. Now your talking about it. So its working.
