@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.

Must not be popular as I only see photos from four of us.

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