CAAD10-1, No plans so far (or rather no money) except cutting the steerer tube and slamming the stem, but in the future planning to black it out to its limit.
This being my first matte black bike, I don't think I'll be going back to a gloss/clear coat bike. The S-Works really have some eye-catching matte paint jobs, at least to me. Trek's 2012 5.9 frame is also pretty nice, being matte white and blue.

That frameset is insanely nice. It's also the only matte black frameset I've ever liked. The smaller font used for the Cannondale logos along with the CK headset and nicely proportioned tube sizes...I better stop because I'm drooling on my keyboard. I'd probably trade my caad9 for one of those if I found one in good condition like yours.

Just upgraded and purchased last week! 2012 49cm Tarmac Apex
Not much money left for upgrades but I will do the wheels within a few months.
