It's OEM pewter. I have the same car. It's nice (though I like my white T/A better). The pewter color kind of adds a more classy look to it IMO.
If you really need it, I can get you the color code off mine so you can make sure...?

Doesn't look like pewter to me. Pewter has a lot of metallic in it and this color looks more like a gloss grey. Not to mention there's no subtle hint of gold you get with pewter metallic.

I attached a picture I had of my car in a similar stance. Color looks the same to me...

If you drag that picture into photoshop, and add a bit more saturation, it starts to look more pewter. A buddy has a pewter trans am and the goldish quality starts diluting once it starts getting dark.

The Pewter looks much more gold in direct sunlight, but when it starts to get dark or you are in a shaded area, the silver pops out.

As another pewter owner, who's had the car since July of 2000, and taken probably 1500+ photos of my car, I know first hand how the color changes, especially with different lighting at different times of the day and natural vs artificial lighting.
Here's an example of it looking similar to the car in the first post.
And yes, I know the bumper doesn't match the hood, or the front quarter panel, but that's a factory pewter paint job for you.
Here it looks more golden in the direct sunlight.
