Yep thats meteor on terracotta and black two tone interior. And like Denis, a dark steering wheel lots of carbon.
But what a shine on the exterior. Need to polish mine!!

To the OP if you're sure the accident was minor -- cosmetic damage only (How's the tire wear? Has the car been aligned and do you have a printout of it? Are the A/C condensers and radiators all the same color/age?) -- and the car's condition meets with your approval (and that of a PPI), and the price meets with your approval, I see no reason the pass on the car.

Wow. Like mine, the orignal owner really spec'd it out nicely. Super nice to see. Nice smell with all the leather I suspect, right?
