Hi there,
I’m still looking for a manual DBS and just got contact with a seller that has one in Obsidian black metallic. I thought that obsidian was an interior colour only, so I asked if it was Storm or Onyx black but, no the colour is Obsidian according to the seller?
From what i know Storm black has red flakes and Onyx has silver, what is the characteristic of Obsidian black?

I have obsidian black. It’s a Q colour.
Basically a fine metallic black. Looks good in the sunshine but not as impressive as some other Aston colours

Storm black has red and gold flakes, nice when clean

I think I recall seeing red flakes in Onyx? We should have a write up of all the colours, with their 'colours' that show through

I also learned something new, as I also always thought Obsidian was interior only....

I had this question to a AM Workshop concerning black colors. The answer was ...
Onyx Black has Silver flakes
Storm Black has Red flakes
Carbo Black has Blue flakes
Jet Black without flakes

Cheers
