Is the atlas grey the same as the Audi atlas grey on the d3 a8s?

Ha! Don’t remind me! This was my unicorn color when I was looking and I should have held out...

The hardest part for me is my neighbor that is diagonal from me has an Atlas Gray Boxster which I get to see on a frequent basis when I walk the dog...The pain is real...

I have also seen an Atlas Gray 997 here in Raleigh with Sport Classic wheels before. It looked very nice! Many unicorns right under our noses...

2009 C2S. I ended up trading for a Midnight Blue because I really wanted blue / tan (and PDK in LA).... I think dark exterior and dark interior is also too dark for my tastes, tan felt bigger.

Atlas Gray is incredible though. Looks deep blue / teal depending on the light. Dream car would be atlas gray over terra-cotta.

Here is the Midnight Blue (and a very funny girlfriend) for contrast:

I would be hard pressed to even call it Gray.


Perfect picture to show how atlas changes with different light. Right front quarter panel looks almost midnight blue and the rest of the car black. Either way, one of my favorite colors on the 997. And yes, why include grey in the name of it? I see black and blue but no grey no matter the light on it.

I really wanted Atlas Gray when I was looking for my 997.2 ...no wonder I could not find it.

Love that shade but never saw an atlas car in the right light to produce that look. Definitely dark grey there....almost towards gunmetal. Would buy that color in a heartbeat if it looked that way all the time or at least most of the time. All atlas cars I've seen in daylight and in person have had more of a dark blue and black hue to them than the dark grey in this picture. Complex color.

Mine ... I just noticed I still have the Track DOT on the windshield, just after I added the Smile Vent and Center Rad Kit.
