Looks like Sebring Silver. I think its too light to be Pewter.

Look on the glove box sticker and get the paint code. If you post that, we can tell you exactly what color it is.
Perhaps it is the best looking silver ever put on a Vette - Quicksilver.

theres quite a bit of info on the glove box sticker, what am i actually looking for?
US82E 193?
i doubt its pewter... seen em and they are more of a brown tint... this car looks silver.
the rims arent painted, they are polished alumin.

Compare that picture to a pic of my now deceased Quiksilver coupe before I put on chrommies. See how the coloration is the same between the wheels and body of the car. The car in question doesn't have the similarity and is pewter.
