Default Single Stage or Base Clear???

The car is black.
The car is not a daily driver.
I prefer an original look over a polished glass look.
The guy painting doesn't care which method I choose.
Okay I think those are the basics.

I'd prefer that this decision not just be a coin toss a few days before the big event. The painter and I have talked about the pros and cons of each, and I'm still undecided.

If it was a metallic I would absolutely go base clear. I'm told, and have read that black looks more authentic in single stage.

Those of you that have gone single stage...any regrets?
Those of you that have gone base/clear...any regrets?

Your thoughts are appreciated.
