That second pic is Matt's new ride and I saw it last week. It is awesome in person and something I just don't think pics can capture. I can 100% tell you that the pic of Matt's is nothing close to how awesome it looks in person. The best way for me to describe it would be a really awesome looking seal grey. Picture seal grey with more luster and metallic in it.

I knew you would hear that Chris

I should ammend my statement by saying that seal grey is a fantastic color and one of my favorite grey's but that meteor is like taking seal grey and cruching a bunch of metallic luster in it. For some that is BETTER for some that is actaully not better. Totally subjective.

Any yes, you shoud have got SY.....wanna trade?

Probably even a little darker than that. As Dell is mentioning it is a much deeper gray than my Seal color and looks great.

I am a fan of the bright colors but this MG looks good.

It Really just look like the seal gray, not that Lambo gray.

Lucky I have seen the real thing before I take the action.

So no more Meteor

Far be it from me to say something different than an owner of one of these colors but unless I am stupid or blind, the meteor color is MUCH darker than my Seal.

Matt, I was up at Synergy and they had that Koni car that Brent and Patrick were going to run and now is for sale. It is Meteor and is much darker than mine sitting next to it.

Anyway, I like the color no matter what.
