MBM and other colors I haven't had the pleasure of seeing a medium blue metallic car in person because they are so few and far between, so I am curious how easy it is to keep clean.
I am looking for a new paint color. My primary concern is that it hides dust decently. Every day I drive down a 1/4 mile dirt road to get to the stable. My black vette looks disgusting when I get home obviously, it was dumb of me to get a black DD in the first place.
Anyway.
This is someones MBM formy -
I think the color is killer. I am also looking at perhaps painting the project some form of silver. I know pewter is the best for hiding dust, but I have already had a pewter car and want something different. I also like the mineral gray that comes on Ford Mustangs...anyone have one of those?

Are you gonna repaint the Vette? 
My first car was a metallic maroon and it hid the dirt pretty well. Also, I think my NBM hides it well too. My first Camaro was black so I know how that is. And, my NBM is way better than that was. FWIW
