Yep, Galaxy Silver Metallic. I have a OE paint pen from GM of it for any touch up needs I may have.

I'd be nice to see it in the sun, its been so crappy here weather-wise since I got the damn car.

Congrats on the car. I thought we agreed it would only be called "silver" from now on..

Technically....yes, for the purposes of book keeping, we'll only use the factory term once.

From now on, I decree, this car is Silver

Man I love those wheels....


So tell me, I've always wanted to know how well the tap shift works, is it noticeably quicker?

Originally I thought it was just PCM programming to allow it to shift gears individually, but I was reading up about it... They changed the valve body and a couple of other components to accommodate the tapshift feature... So, yah, I'd be anxious to test it out

Awesome ride! I just picked up a Black 04 GT2 and I'm loving it. Only 200hp - but it'* enough for me I drive like a granny anyways. The extra 60 would still be nice though

I guess I will have to make a trip to T.O. to "test drive" that one too, lol. Gonna have to hit the industrial area like we did with the Slowrora.

Galaxy Silver Metalic...I have a pen sitting here also for my Malibu. I like the color since it doesn't show as much in the winter for dirt.

Jim, Come on down to Charlotte and we can do a photo shoot. 74 degrees yesterday and sunny skies.
