Diff between Graphite Shadow & Platinum Graphite
I have a 2010 G37S coupe in Graphite Shadow. Does anyone know what the difference in color is between this and the 2008-2009 models painted Platinum Graphite? Is one darker than the other? In posted pictures they look about the same. Thanks in advance for any assistance.

The Platinum Graphite is not available on the G. Sorry it use to be on the older G35/37 models. I think the Graphite Shadow is a darker color.

nice colors but Infiniti is pretty stupid for releasing almost identical colors in their lineup. They also have the Amethyst Graphite, which is almost like the PG but with some purple pearl to it under direct sunlight.

IMO, they should have a true dark grey or gunmetal color. Think Blue Slate minus the "Blue"

I was looking for something like that when I was buying my G. I came from a flint mica Scion tc (http://images.jaxsportscars.com/pictures/39783505.jpg) and I really liked the color. It was pretty much a dark charcoal with specs of metallic flakes in it. I was trying to find a similar dark color in the Infiniti lineup but they don't have anything like that. Blue slate was pretty close but it was very hard to find one and I actually found that I like the graphite shadow color so I went with that.
