Hmm...Lets see it starts off as a greenish blue base, then a charcol grey overcoat giving it a pearl. add some shots of a purplish blue here and there (like between the top of the winshield and the sunroof) and there you have it.

Mine is dark grey....even though the used car dealership kept calling it brown.
They must be color blind because i am pretty sure i am not...hehehe

The color is so cool because it is almost black...But better since it's not.

Very stealthy!

whatever color this is

I think someone on this thread called it a honey mustard...that's about the BEST description of this color I have heard.
Honey mustard with brown pinstripes.
ewwww.
would've been happy with just about any other factory color...at least the paint's in somewhat good shape (still shines a bit).

If you bought that car off of the lot on Kish, then it's called Tornado Silver and that's the same color car I have. Almost bought that car, but the guy was being real stubborn about it. -_-
