Diamond Silver Metallic

I was just informed that this color is being discontinued in March. My dealer doesn't think they will accept the order I placed today for that color.

Re: Am I getting a third GLE----The 2016 is leased and being replaced with a 2018. The 2017 Coupe, I own and intend on keeping it for 5-6 years.
Regarding my avatar--- The 65 yellow GTO was my first car. When I got out of the Army in 69 I found out my parents sold it. I wasn't happy ( but was happy to be home.)

Similar story. We got a new GTO in '67. Silver Glaze with black vinyl top. I was out in Hong Kong on a freighter in 1970 when my father sold it. Told my brothers I'd get even with them for allowing that to happen. So for our 25th wedding anniversary my wife bought me the '67 Gulf Turquoise one I have today.
