I cast my "expert opinion" that I think it's Cyber Gray.

At first I dismissed the CGM loons in this thread but I think I'm now in the UFO seeing camp. What horrible circumstances for us to first see CGM lol.

By golly I think you are on to something. It sure could be CGM. It looks much darker in the rain with dark clouds. So much so that even up close you can barely see the metallic flakes. I just looked at one Sunday, in the rain and you could hardly tell it was CGM. Then I looked today, at the same exact car, in the sunshine and appeared to be a completely different car.

I know I have already pointed this out, but, it makes sense now that this really could be CGM. How do we get someone on this to be on the lookout?

That's a toughie... think I'm having second thoughts. It may just be CGM...

*Mr. Wyndham* · 12-29-2008, 10:12 PM

This picture, if anything; looks matte black to me. But we know that doesn't exist. So based on the shadowing, etc....either it's Cyber Gray on a cloudy day in the rain, or a black Camaro that's EXTREMELY filthy...but it can't be that filthy, because it's in the rain

. So I think it's a not-great shot of Cyber Gray.

If that is the case, honestly, even in an unflattering picture I am impressed!

I hate to be a debbie downer for the thread but I think it's black. Hopefully I'm wrong. I think it would be lighter along the bottom edges of the car away from the sky reflection to be cyber gray.

Tantalizer43 · 12-29-2008, 10:36 PM

That's where my current hesitation, in favor of black, lies...

if you look at the wheels, which we know are black from the Disney pics, and compare it to the fenders and door panels, i think it looks like black with strong reflections of the gray sky. that same thing happened with the SIM SS shown here. it looks more white due to the surrounding snow & bright gray sky. i ain't trying to pee on your snow cone, but as much as i'd love to see CGM, i think it's black

LOL...refer to sig. I'm gonna see what CS2 does to clean this up without altering it.

Well, my end result came out exactly like Dragon's...which I'm kinda proud of actually since he's the resident expert.

idk about that... if it was black it would have more of a shine to it. I have a black car and it doesn't look like that when its wet
