This looks like an amazing colour. Either that or the lighting is playing tricks.

Anyone know the exact colour code? Anyone have this colour?

It could be Starmist Grey although it looks a little darker in that picture.

Isn't that the Chimaera at Adrian Blyth's right now. Amazing colour. Almost enough to make me defect from Griffdom!

You could ask Tom Horsburgh who does Adrian's GRP work - he's a specialist nr Guildford and his number is on Adrian's website. You won't speak to a nicer chap!

Shame to see the price so low (they'll be giving them away soon!) but nice colour for sure.

I think it's the Strorm Grey Metallic. Have a look on www.tmstvr.co.uk and click on gallery, they have a load of TVR pics and colour names.

I think it normally looks lighter then that though (when outside). Or maybe it's just had a respray? Does look nice though eh?

I think you're right. I just checked the TMS site and the second pic of the Chimaera looks amazing. Now, which interior will works best with this?

Car does indeed look fabulous in this colour but showroom light shows it darker than it actually is.

Colour is in fact a Lotus colour Titanium Silver B62 - TVR reference is MLL9B.

As apprentice says it's a Lotus colour.

If you look in my profile my Cerbera is the same colour. The picture is taken in natural light, so may give you a better idea of what the colour looks like.

Look's very similar to my Starmist Grey Cerbie (see profile) which is an Aston Martin colour. Different reference code though.

Usually different colours are taken from other makes and find there way into the TVR range under a different name, but with 99% same mixing code (paint number). Prestige Grey metallic is the Aston Martin Grey for the record and it looks amazing in a Cerbera, Grey is fashionable at present and the Tuscan/Tamora has been a top seller for the past 18 months in Ferrari grillio Titanio
