What color is this 1982?
Please help with color ID
I believe this is a Porsche color but what year and what is it called? I don't see it on the "normal 82 colors" chart. Dark charcoal gray. Almost like an anthrcite on modern german cars Thanks in advance ![]() ![]() ![]()

Thanks Guys
I think CPA nailed it. Too much charcoal in it for black metallic. Some bonehead removed the plate long ago |

My '80SC is very similar to your color. The color is factory paint to order in 1980 Mercedes Anthricite.

The paint code on this car is 624-9-3. Although your color looks a tad bit darker in color, but maybe it's just the lighting.
