Why are door handles/inserts black?

My first Saab, a silver 9000 turbo, had black handle pulls. The indented finger inserts were part of the door panel, thus were the body color. Now everything is black. Most upscale cars have body color matching handles and inserts. What's the reasoning behind Saab's use of black only, other than a cost saving feature, which doesn't make sense on a car of this calibre?
