The silver of which you speak was actually called Tungsten. I considered this color. It's a darker silver, not as light as the satin silver stripes on my car. It also had a purple cast to it in certain sunlight, which I did not like. When I Googled Tungsten, it mentioned that by nature it has purplish tones in it.

Wasn't there a silver that actually looked like silver on the S197s (prior to Vapor)?

Thanks. The Vapor looks less metallic than the satin silver.

I think the satin silver is really close to the silver that they are using on the KR.

Yes, Satin Silver. However, that color was not an option on GT500s. I would have liked to see a Satin Silver car with red stripes...preferably a dark red.:mafia20smile:

They were saving that color for the KR. The KR is the only Shelby to dawn such an awesome color.
