Im still waiting for my car, but I got the smokey granite mica because I think a luxury car should have metal flake in the paint, it helps seperate them from other cars. I wanted the darkest "flaked" color I could find because they look so much better in low light. I am just hoping the color is not a blueish tint in the sun all the time, I saw some pics where it looked that way. Anybody have a comment on this?
