That is no where near Agean Blue, that car is Diamond Silver! Agean Blue is almost as dark as Black Opal in the direct sunlight, not even close to that light. By the way that is a beautiful car!!! I saw my first real SL55 today (European Version), it was Obsidian Black/Charcoal, in the service dept. of the dealership where I work. No picture does that car justice, you MUST see it to believe it!!!!

Now I'm really confused... Is aegean blue closer to black (as MarcusBenz says) or closer to blue or green? Thanks everyone for your help.
