Grey

Damn Weasel!!
Living up to your name....I was going to paint my car that scheme sans the black roof, all grey. Maybe I'll go blue/gray....I'd go with gray if I had to chose between gray and Teal. When you get a good price PM me to tell me how much $$$.

roger that and as for the color scheme the day before I picked her up I had already visioned her in that color scheme...its a good choice for the SVX esp with the grey interiors..and why have just one unique CG SVX when we can have several

well overwhelmingly the Charcoal Grey wins...I admit I was a bit surprised, around my area the consensus was to keep her Teal...but I will allow the SVX community to sway the tide...Charcoal Grey it is..it fits my CF interior and will look damn good I may say with the Shoguns ..and I like the SVX in dark colors..and honestly the few areas that may remain Teal will blend somewhat with the Grey..the colors are not so far apart on the color scale as to bring attention to the differences..it will show tho..yes...if I can cough up enough benjamins I may be able to get everything painted Grey..and then a digital camera to give you folks a glimpse..stay tuned kids

The actual Charcoal Grey paint (code 222) is darker than that - in fact if you look at it from a distance, it looks black!

But the spoiler, trunk lid, and top are black, aren't they?

Yeah, it's people like me that are giving the admin a headache with the locker reinstatement. I believe the color change SVXs are in the 13400s (Dec 03).

Ah, I see you've found the SVuck -- doesnt that sound rude when you try to pronounce it?

(I need to make another one that isn't specific to a certain SVX).
