@Jpbesl, very nice, I also like your PTS expoxy floor. It's all in the details.

Can't help but thinking of the current Greyhound bus color scheme, IMHO.

I predict this color is an instant classic, especially if they drop it after a year or so. It's much nicer in person that any pic, imo.

Thanks, did you notice the hint of Martini livery hanging on the wall? Custom paddleboard I had made.

Anyone have graphite with the chalk interior? Thinking about it for a cabriolet but wondering if chalk is too light and will stain easily.

Funny that this thread should appear today. Today my specs go final. Here is a few "pics" from the configurator. And the code, I hope it works.

My wife didn't like it in person but I think that color is stunning.

Very nice color. I shall add this to the list of potential colors for my next car.

I have seen similar color on Audi which I thought initially was sort of matte gray.

The chalk is much more gray in person than the "white" it shows on the configurator.

Such a great color.

They really knocked it out of the park with those Turbo S wheels as well.
Looks incredible.

The graphite blue often looks like a battleship grey or depending on lighting has a strong shade of blue. I hope the two different shades come through from I-phone pics. Sometimes it looks like a non-metallic color, but under bright sunlight it really shows the metallic. All different shades look outstanding and we definitely get a lot of compliments. The car has some matching painted interior parts and sometimes they don’t match exactly with the exterior color due to lighting.

That's ok, I'd rather it be rather obscure.....middle of December I'll have real pics to add.
