To me that looks like the 2002 ford super duty grey. I think it's called shadow charcoal grey, or dark shadow grey, something like that. The chevy truck grey like that is a light tone of grey

The car is an odd color...I can tell you it is not dark grey or gunmetal. I am unsure what you would call it.

I'm pretty sure I saw that car a few months back at streets in addison. I heard it runs like 10 seconds or something, it's pretty damn nice. I wish I knew what color it was though.

It's a factory color on the early 4th gens, but I don't know the code for it. I can pm you some contact info for a guy that has it and he can get you a color code if you would like

The color is Amethyst. It would be the same color on Brice's car. Gm is notorious for using the same color, sometimes with slight variaton and changing the name. I worked in a GM dealer paint shop for a while, the color is amethyst kinda like what's on some of the newer Cobalts but it will have a different name.

Brice, look in your glove compartment at the bottom. You should see where it says bc/cc, there will be a code beside that, that will tell what the paint code is, the paint option code is different, the code I am reffering to is the actual code they will pull in a shop. For ex. My code is 9806, dark yellow-green met. Black is always 8555, you guys get it.

OOOH, I just looked at the better pics, it looks waaaaaay different than in the 1st one, I'll agree with some of the posts after me, it's not GM

it is not a factory GM color and in the other pics it shows the color much better

This car belonged to 3 different customers of ours. The kid which painted it prior to JR owning the car told me it was something other then a GM F-Body color.

To me it looks like dark green-gray metallic, which is a factory gm color. Heres some pics after a quick search.





This color was only offered in 93 and 94s. Anyway click the link below to see the colors offered for 1994.
