I see what everyone is saying about the TOYOTA now.

However, look at the chart. The Gen2 did not come in any shade of grey.


As I read the chart, there was a grey for the coupe and another for the conv. Both were not available for the SLE, but the SE or sport would have it.

Titanium Metallic and Magnetic Grey are available for both Coupe and Convertible, but only for Gen 2.5 (2007+). The car in the shot is a Gen 2. It's difficult to tell from the shots, but it doesn't look like either available color for the Gen 2.5 either.

Yup, the greys are for Gen2.5 only. It is hard to tell, but it does look like a random color, and not a Toyota OE color.

Oh well...

So I was going to lunch today, and I could have SWORE I saw this car!! It was a Gen 2 that was dark gray!!! I swear, it was dark gray. I wasn't driving, so I couldn't catch up to it to get a better look.

After it passed, it looked black in the distance and the shadows, and now I'm not sure what color it was.
I wish I could have caught up and gotten a better look.

I would not have even thought twice about it if not for this thread. Now I'm more unsure than ever.
