SGM isn't the best of colours to keep clean if you have mixed climates but overall its a great colour imo.

Like Sedona Red, photos just don't do it justice.

Exactly... ordinarily, silver and gray cars bore me. But SGM is different, it's not just a run-of-the-mill gray color. It's the kind of color that people will do a double-take to see, because it seems to shift with different lighting angles. It's a cool effect.
