The term "Triple Black" has a certin ring to it. A cashe' if you will. I've read several automobile ads refering to a coupe as Triple Black.

It's turning into a bone headed advertizing hype phrase and it's being picked up by those who should know better.

Wrong!

Triple black is roof/interior/body all black. If your top is not convertible then it's not triple black.
