Man you ask a lot of questions!!!

Steel or Tennorite are the same color. Steel in the USA and Tennorite most everywhere else.

I did the same thing. The color was driving me nuts. I started with Tennorite, then White, back to Tennorite and finally Palladium. The clincher was going to a dealer that had most colors on the lot in the new C. I visited during the day twice. Once in bright sun and again on an overcast day. Made my choice very easy. Pictures just don't do it

I'm pretty sure that is Iridium Silver... it's just photographed in bright light.

But I do not currently have enough posts or credibility here for you to believe me.

I think you are right about the "Bright" light but could be mistaken about the color. Iridium Silver really washes out in bright light and Palladium starts to look like Iridium in overcast (in bright light... if that makes sense)

Thats why its best to see them live in different light before you decide on your personal choice

Here some examples of Iridium in bright light.

Palladium Silver, I just saw one at my local dealership over the weekend.

That color looks really good on that car because it matches the rims and flows with the car's curves, and I bet it'll be very low maintenance compared to black

Nice choice, I love the white and Steel Grey. That would be my top 2. I just can't handle taking car of another black car...

Post pics when you get it!!!
