Shorter stem?

What do you guys think?

I’m 176 cm with an inseam of 85 cm. I have long legs and short torso.

Could it work with a shorter stem?

This is a medium Scott Foil with standard 100 mm stem. The saddle height here is 75 cm.

I have tried a lot of bikes in size small and the drop is too much because I have so long legs and such a short torso.

Matte bike vs not matte?

I'm about to buy a Scott Foil that is matte gray. (Carbon Grey)

Is the bike harder to maintain/keep pretty when it's matte versus not matte?

Does the bike get visible scratches more easily due to the matte coating?
