That's an awesome color. It's begging to be lowered and tinted though.

Thanks for the compliments. I really like the color, although I was a bit worried it would look too blue when I first ordered it. The first dealer I went to claimed there were no S65s built in any colors other than silver, black or peuter. I was going to get the peuter, but couldn't reach a deal with the dealer on price. I finally ended up at another dealer that was more honest on color choices, and I got the Flint Grey. Glad I chose this color, there's a lot of depth to it, and it has a lot of nice tones depending on the light.

If I ever step up to a 65 and can't find another "chalcedon blau" to replace my 55, I'm going to go for flint grey or granite grey. They are very beautiful colors in the flesh.

Oh, and that sig of yours - a Neil Young reference, or the Kurgan?

Looks good

Which part of Wilmington do you live? My company is there... but mainly work remotely from home. I'm not that familiar w/ that area.... I've even been trying to find good chinese food around Wilmington and so far unsuccessful

I'll be there 3/19-3/24. We could meet if you don't mind... I mean showing Wilmington area (so far I've always stayed at Sheraton in downtown Wilmington and don't like the surrounding - who would? ) - with your beast

Errrr.... you're not my boss or a senior executive in my company, aren't you?
