Default Official CERAMIC MATRIX GRAY METALLIC Color Thread

I didn't see one of these in the Official Color Thread post so I thought I'd start one. There are some great pictures of this color next to Arctic White and a few of the silvers. I hope this is helpful for someone considering this color. Admins please move (or delete LOL) as necessary!

Thanks for starting this thread up. Meanwhile, George Matick is where I bought my Corvette. I've been meaning to visit the dealership and take a look at the pictured Carbon 65 which to my knowledge is still in stock. Might do that this weekend, since I'll be in the area wrapping up my Christmas shopping.

Oh my gawd nooooo ................ You'd have every tool on this planet jacking with you on the street. Even a simple run to the corner store for a pack of gum would become an issue.

Was looking at a Carbon65 at the dealer with my father. It's funny how white these cars look until you park them next to a white one. Great color.

Mine arrived this week. The color is tough to really see with a photo. Much different in person. You can see in the picture with snow in the background

Glad you posted these here. There’s one (CMG coupe) at the dealer three minutes from my office, about three times a week I go through there to look at her in person because as you’ve pointed out the color looks far different in person than photos. It also seems to change a lot under different lighting conditions. My NRB 14 did the same, two of the things I like about CMG are common to NRB (without fighting the difficulties of keeping a dark car clean); changes color in different lighting and a color that is not very common. Congratulations again!

Are you still on the fence about Ceramic Matrix? Still not sure? Going back and forth between Ceramic Matrix and Arctic white? Well.. STOP! Go check it out in person. Pictures does not do any justice to this color. It's a fantastic color that looks super unique. I'll upload some pictures here so that it helps a new buyer pick this color. Pictures are taken in different lighting, indoor and outdoors.
