According to him, that's the original factory paint. It's pretty close in hue to that Ferrari paint too. Might wanna check out some GM paint codes and see if you can find it. Probably be a helluva lot cheaper than the Ferrari blend.

 

That color is predominantly a dark lavenderish purple w/ a greyish tone , not really grey at all .

Look into Audi Dolphin grey if you have a audi dealer local . They put it on the A4's and TT's . It is sweet , if ya like the greys . Very rich looking color .

Also , Dupont Pepper grey is pretty sick looking too . Its a Chrome Illusion color I do believe . Its probably not dark enuff for you , but sweet nonethe less .

The same could be said for this one as well. It has a bluish hue.



The point where light is reflected into the lens tells the color.

 

Thats purely the camera or lighting , there isnt one single ounce of blue hue in Dolphin grey at all looking at it in person .

 

I think you may be onto something.
