I'm not even making this up, but everyone I know who sees my car... The first thing they compliment is the color. From a distance or in pictures, it just looks like another dark gray. But in person on a sunny day, there's nothing like it.
Go BS all the way!!

Honestly, when I found my used BS in '08, I almost didn't make the drive to see it because I thought it was just dark gray. However, after I pulled up the dealership on a bright sunny day, I was sold!! If it's overcast, then it just looks like dark gray, which sucks. But the second any sun comes out, the reflections take on a pretty dark blue color.

Agreed. I love my blue slate.

Get the color you like, it does not matter what color stands out more.. as long as your not being a **** on the roads cops look up to you... and I doubt your going to keep your G stock anyways, so it's going to stand out sooner or later.

AB is an awesome color. It was the only color I was interested in.
It gets a lot of looks.
However, the cop that pulled me over didn’t even see the color because it was night time. Nope, he just saw the speed on his radar……
Luckily when he ‘caught’ me, I was doing less than 10 over the posted limit and gosh darn it, he was nice enough to just give me a warning.
He actually did step back and admire the car because I pulled over under a street light….
It only took 3 months for me to get pulled over.... hopefully it doesn't happen again any time soon.

I just drove my AB '08 coupe 500 miles back to Atlanta and here was my experience:
- Radar detector chirped up before a cop popped up over the hill on the other side of the road
- I spotted a cop heading the other way and after he saw me, he then turned on his radar
- I had a cop come screaming up behind me, I moved over, he kept going
- Random other normal radar detector encounters
Really, the only one I'd say anything about was the cop who didn't have his radar on and then turned it on after spotting me. I'm sure I caught his eye, it's a damn sexy car.

My previous car was this and I never once was stopped by the PoPo. I was never harassed for the 4 years I drove her.
I've got AB now and as long as you're not doing anything illegal you should be fine. Definitely the BEST color ever!!

look at all the haters in here, wishing they wd have got AB!!!
attracting jealous men? YES, thats true... cuz they wish they had this car in this rare color. i.e haters in this thread =)
attracting beautiful women? YES... cuz they want to be inside the beautiful car, riding... perhaps in more ways than one
