I may be stupid and missing the point - but this part from the BMW page made me laugh: "This nanostructure paint finish, among the blackest ever made by man, tricks the viewer’s perception of the car as a three-dimensional shape." -- oh, the magic. You paint a 3D object with this paint and it looks 3D.
I am guessing they meant 'two-dimensional'.

- frosted-flakes 5y agoI don't see anything wrong with the sentence. The black paint tricks the viewer's normal perception of the car as a three-dimensional shape, to make it seem like it's two-dimensional. Are you understanding it differently?
- mdorazio 5y agoYes. The idea is that without being able to differentiate features, a 3d object painted with it looks basically like a silhouette, so your brain interprets it as a 2d object.

- cirrus3 5y agoThe sentence is fine and means what you think it should. You are reading it wrong.
