I work near a dealer so I see the cars all the time. I saw the new blue and silver today and yes in one sense they are very similar but from a paint perspective they are absolutely different colors. If you need bodywork and they mixed up the paints it would be night and day for color match. I liked both the new silver and the blue. IMHO the blue is bluer and less black. Since the black has a blue metal flake, they would look very similar. Now I think there is more of a distinction between the colors. The silver seemed brighter. The new silver seems to be more contemporary shade than the classical shade. The amount of paint on the bumpers seems to be the same.

When I snapped the pic I caught it changing from 32 to 33.



Also here are 2 shots of black weathertech mats in a parchment interior. It looks much better than I thought it would.

ron, I see your trying to protect your car seats by the baby seat. My wife found this great product at Babies R Us which goes under the baby car seat (instead of the towel) and is very thick. It wont leave the indentations of the baby seat.
