Seal Gray vs Atlas Gray



My dealer has a Cayman S with the options I want but it is Altas Gray. The first Cayman I saw was Seal Gray and kind of fell in love with it. Maybe it was the time of day but the Atlas Gray looked almost black. I had a Audi with Volcanic Ash Black color and it just never looked clean. Anyone have experience with Atlas Gray? Should I wait and order the color I want?

Don't know about the Atlas, but the Seal hides the dirt really well.

Seal Grey is awesome! but again any color (maybe not pink?) will suit this croc. Just take her home~!

I'm a big fan of Atlas [img]/fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/MWPX/teeth_smile.gif[/img]......but Seal is a great color also. As I, and many others probably did.......if possible go and see both colorsin ALL kinds of light.......bright sun, cloudy day, evening, night, etc. Doesn't have to be on a Cayman either......any old 911 will do [img]/fckeditor/editor/images/smiley/MWPX/wink_smile.gif[/img]


Atlas is a very dark grey with a touch of blue......in sunlight and at night under light it looks fantastic......but it is a dark color and will not hide dirt well. On a cloudy day it can look almost black. Seal has its own set of good and bad qualities, but you will have to judge for yourself.

<div>I've looked at both and I think the Seal grey while a GREAT color seems a little dead when it isn't sunny out. that is my opinion of course but I do love the color. The Atals is like the Basalt only with a blue metalic flake to it rather than grey.</div>
<div></div>
<div>I think the seal would 'look' cleaner when dirty as most light colors do. Like most said look at both side by side. Have them pull a seal grey next to it and see what you like best</div>

seal gray hides the dirt very well... haven't washed mine since I got it on the 13th, except for the wheels (18' Cayman wheels are easy to clean) and what the rain cleaned away... probably not as clean as some of you like but not too bad... who has time to wash it when it's so much fun to drive?
