If this was a thing it would totally be my pick.
No doubt. Although I usually prefer metallics, this this looks like it's dripping wet. What an astounding paintjob and it really shows off the lines of the car like Ingot does.

So if it turns out that sort of shade is actually what eventually ends up on the car, what is it that people like about it? Particularly with all-black wheels, it seems very industrial/utilitarian/institutional to me.
Perfectly described. Good word choice there. I think that exact thing is the very appeal to some, especially if it is a high end model like an SVT. Kind of like a stealth industrial look or something.

Personally I don't care for the flat paint, I prefer the metallics, and brighter colors generally speaking. I can see the appeal to some, but I would most certainly not order a car in what looks like a primer color to me.

I'm actually stressing over the idea that a color like this could be offered. I'll be seriously bummed out on my choice...

I think even small color accents brake covers small short stripes will also make this color look sick...I realize ford has to limit customization but if Ford felt like they couldn't make money on it have it as a specialized color that was order only...

I saw at least three different cars today with that color. I think it is become much more readily available.

I think Toyota/Lexus offers a similar color on their FJ and Scion TC. Porsche has a few awesome pearl gray shades. That render that chrisvr6 made looks like a hybrid between the 997 Sport Classic and the upcoming Z06's new "Tiger Shark Gray."

I've been obsessing over a color option like this. Two things I've been trying to realize are: 1) the grass is always greener, and 2) pearl/flat paints always look fantastic in pictures and videos, but a nice metallic will really show off the S550's sculpted lines.

P44SC HRE. About $8K+ for a set.
:shocked:

Apparently I wandered into rich mans land, I will just work may way back over to the the budget wheel section..After having my last rims bent from a massive pothole at night and getting road rash while trying to be ridiculously careful with them I cant see spending that much on wheels for a DD.

Thanks for the info!
