Judging from these pictures (the ones taken at night), I don't think I've ever seen anything like this. Absolutely amazing. Wish I could see it in person, I am sure it's one of those things that pictures and videos just don't do justice. Almost looks like frozen chrome but then with much more depth.

Congratulations sealionbeast your choice, your money very well spent!!!

Glimpses of chrome effect showing; did your detailer take a video? I so want to see this colour in person!

Going off on a tangent, did your previous car have CP? If not, how different are you finding this one?

As a Space Gray owner, your PMS is the color I'd aspire to have, too expensive for my budget though. It's beautiful and would stop me on the sidewalk if I were to come across it on the street.

My 13, didn't have CP. It wasn't available. I can tell the difference. The suspension and steering are better. Also car sits a little lower, looks better in my opinion.

That does look different indoors, what a consistent shine it has to it there.

pure metal silver video

Here is video of my car after it was detailed. I don't know how to post video so here is the link to my detailers page with the video. If you are in Southern California I highly recommend Lucci Elite Detail.
