Yep it is...

Took a bit of a risk when I ordered as I'd not seen the colour in the flesh but I'm glad I did!

Reminds me of the old Atlas Grey from mk2 GTI days. Was always a popular colour and I had one myself many years ago.  :smiley:

Funnily enough I was thinking the same thing about Shadow Blue!  :laugh:

Of course I'm biased; but I think the colour really compliments the Jacara/interior!

Dealer kindly gave me a free set of the GTI mats which IMO really add to the look of the interior!

The carbon grey seems to change colour depending on its surrounding.  The chameleon colour!

It would be interesting to see a carbon grey and a blue graphite side by side - in dull weather the blue graphite looks very like the pics I've seen of the carbon grey.

Hi Rolfe

When I took the pics it was bright & sunny... Can look like different car in other conditions!

Would be interesting to see some pics side by side!

Looking at your pic I can hardly tell the difference (esp the back half of the car)!  :laugh:
