Isn't brushed alum almost same as gunmetal?

I belive gunmetal is darker and has brownish tint - and will go well with PG.

Not endorsing the look of the wheel but just for color comparison purposes:

GM

Polished

that would be the Platinum silver its darker than the Brilliant and not as Dark as the titanium silver.. my favorite color

I think some of the pics are Japan's titanium silver which does have a gold/brown/tan hue to it.

Dude, you're in p'cola. Where did you get ur M6 370Z? Sandy only had autos last time I checked.

Some pics I took today at the Palm Beach show... Persimmon Leather on graphite.

PG is the best colour for an average person that wants to drive and not spend too much time detailing and stuff.... it's one of the best...Dark Grays FTW!!!!

Want to see in person. I guess this depends on camera used to snap a pic but the subtle hue variations change the color from awesome:

to downright hideous:

I ordered my Z in PG, unseen

I'm scared and excited to see it in person!

EDIT: I want to see more photos!

^^ Same here. I ordered my PG w/o seeing it in person. I only say CY and PW. I'm sure it'll look really nice. Every color has its good and bad shots. It's all on lighting and type of camera.

For instance, I was't so sure about CY because not every shot looked as good as the other but when I saw it in person I was like WOW. I would have ordered it, but it's not an everyday color for me.

Ouch nogood, make us sound like lazy car owners

I just can't get enough of Platinum Graphite. I know its the primarily marketed color but you can't deny that it looks just that good.

That is a very grainy and poorly exposed pic. Compare the taillights and wheels between the two pics. In the first one both are very sharp and have nice colors. In the second, not so. Same thing with the outside. Pics up a lot of noise and is a poor quality pic.

That's a great shot, although not a US Spec Z.

There's one at my local dealer in that color. You won't be disappointed. It's nice.
