What color is this?

I have a GLS on order and saw one today on the road in this color. I like that one a lot and want to change mine, but can't figure out what paint this is. Any ideas?

Thanks.

Steel grey figured it out.

I called my dealer and asked to change and was told that the color was cancelled. I told them it was in the dealer ordering guide, and that there were GLS cars on the lot for sale that had the feature. They said the color was released in an early run and that the "system" no longer allows them to order the color.

Weird.

Wow that stinks. I can't believe they would make an initial run of vehicles with it and then stop. It was such a nice color. I found a bunch that have the color, but are missing other options. I guess I'll settle with a different grey.
