It is very dark at night, during the day has tones of blue at certain angles and at other angles/lighting conditions looks dark charcoal gray... It's a great color...

Direct sunlight increases the blue tint to this color. Especially when it's reflecting off a light color surface.

How hard is it to keep clean?

Much easier than black.
Probably not as easy as white or satin steel gray metallic. I had a black 2002 Z06 Corvette for many years. It was a lot of work keeping it clean. I would machine polish it once a year to remove the swirls. Constantly applying glaze and wax. I do enjoy detailing my cars so it wasn't a big deal for me. A short trip to the gas station would make it look dusty and what I call "hazy". Shadow gray looks clean and crisp even after a long road trip. It hides dirt and dust well. I'm really careful washing my cars using clean, soft micro fiber towels and a leaf blower prior to drying. So far there hasn't been a need for a machine polish. Seems like they use a more robust clear coat than they used back in 2002. Even the black hood center section on my ZL1 has remained completely swirl free up to now. Dust and dirt don't show on this color like a black car. I use Meguires ultimate paste wax every other month and Meguires ultimate spray detailer in between. My car is not ceramic coated. The finish has held up nicely. The color looks awesome, especially in the sun. I used to look for shady places to park my black Z06 because it showed dirt, dust, imperfections and that "hazy" look I mentioned above that nobody ever noticed except me . Not the case with shadow gray metallic. Tyrolblue67 Last edited by Tyrolblue67; 09-21-2020 at 10:36 AM. |

It looks different in different light but this shot is about right

Hello,
I am a big Camaro fan from Bavaria, Germany. Unfortunatelly these cars are not that common here. That's why I'm asking if there are any pictures that shows both the "old" NIGHTFALL GRAY and the "new" Shadow GRAY METALLIC Camaro for comparion purposes. Many thanks in advance.

Here are various shots of my Shadow Gray Metallic that really show the blue tint... It is a very strange color in that it shifts very easily... In these it looks basically gray... All in all, I ABSOLUTELY LOVE the color, I love how it changes from very blue to basically charcoal gray, I get a ton of compliments on it, overall I like the blue highlights, I think it gives it a lot of character, I love Nightfall Gray, but it is kind of a one track song...
