I thought you like black metallic (305) best, isn't this dark grey metallic (323)? ;)

But indeed, both 'black' colours look cool on a 480 :D

Looks black to me, although it looks well faded because of unfortunate lighting, so I can see (especially in the first couple of pics) how someone might think it wasn't black.

Just look on the memberlist at JayTee's specs, or read the text for this Car of the Month. ;)

This is really Dark Grey Metallic (or Storm Grey as it's called in the UK).

It is definitely black, same colour as mine, because it was parked next to mine at the banger racing last summer.
