help me identify this color please

after two weeks of "show me your gray" and looking at every image of gray on google for 911/930- I am completely confused! The grays look different in all the lighting variations...

but this is the color for me. I am building the930 I wanted since I could by the 930 I wanted....the original color was 79-blackmetallic...so I want to stay close...but move into the grays...it is not about resale ...




pretty sure this one is Stone Gray ( but also looks like Diamond Blue)


Current condition of the car


Original color- too brown black for m

1979 Used Porsche 911 Turbo at Canepa Serving Scotts Valley, IID 12557382

this is it- the color is " paint to sample" so I will likely have to ask the paint shop to replicate the best he can.

It seems to fall in between the Slate and the Stone......

Anthracite? interesting...I read a post on that this am...its MB color??

I remember being very attracted to Anthracite back then.....My taste now is more NON metallic. I really like solid paint like slate gray and dove gray etc.
