hang in there jakeman. i'll be thinking of you driving my meteor grey c2s today. btw it's 73 F, a little on the chilly side but at least the sun is out

 

That's right...just lay it on. I didn't tell you about my daily driver: a C320 Wagon with 50005 miles that was recovered after being carjacked. It just received $2K worth of repairs (2 seat modules frying the battery, a broken heater flap motor (dash dissection), and a suspension bushing).

PS The carjacker is now in jail pending trial.

Wow, I'm glad your car was recovered and the thief was apprehended. Karma is a bitch You weren't in the car when it was jacked right? At least you're safe, the car is just a possession and can be repaired. BTW, what part of Jersey are you from? I went to med school at NYU and used to go down the shore with my lacrosse teammate from college once in awhile when he was back in Philly.

 

Unfortunately, me, my wife and my 4y old boy WERE in the car (he slept through the whole thing). The police were very helpful and did a great job solving the crime.

I'm really from the Chicagoland area, but used to live in LA. I've been in NJ since 2003.

Seal grey.

 

To quote Paris Hilton, "THAT'S HOT!"

 

i likey!!!! Might I suggest the red tail lights to help finish the look? All clear up front, all red in back

Finally, I can play:

Slate Grey

 

Gorgeous!

 

The first thought that came to mind when I saw this thread title was "Glad you feel comfortable enough to come out of the closet, but why do we care?" . . . then I read a little closer.

Nice cars.

 

Can anyone show meteor vs seal in the same light? Sometimes, in the pictures, they seem identical.

I have meteor.

 

I don't have a side-by-side picture, but I've owned both, and meteor and seal are definitely not identical. Meteor is a darker grey, while Seal is a lighter shade with more blue in it. Meteor also has a much more visible metallic look to it, while seal gray, if next to a meteor, almost looks like a flat paint, rather than a metallic paint.

 

I am jealous. I wanted Grey like mad, but these are the draw backs of used car purschases. I have bassalt black, close but no cigar.
