Default Camo Metallic

Does anyone have any good pics of the Camo Metallic? I was thinking about getting my xB in Black Sand Pearl since I had a Matrix in that color, but it would be really hard to keep clean where I live. Besides, Camo Metallic is new and so very sexy.

I'd also like to get a pic of the interior during night. What color are the gauges anyways? The only thing I really don't like about the interior is that weird gap in the passenger side part of the dash.

Metallic?
Is that different from regular camo?

I have a camo and it is also hard to keep clean.
Especially in winter.
Many interior pics in this forum.

I have got some, I just posted them in the xB section, but I will post the better ones, in color, lol.

That ugly gap infront of the passenger is very very useful, i put alot of stuff in that thing. I dont have a pics of the interior @ night, but I can get some by friday. I use film and would have to get it developed and scanned etc.

If you are comparing Black to Green, Camo is alot better. It is not that hard to keep clean. We get snow down here and I just run it throught the best carwash in town once a week and it shines real nice. In the summer, with my Gold Class Wax on it, it is easy maintence wth the Quick Detailer. Black is worse.

You do realize that the proper name for the color is Camouflage Metallic, right? I'm surprised you don't considering you have a CM xB.

I guess I'm wondering if was always called that or if that is a new flavor for 05.
You said the color was new.

I have an 04, (got it last April) but I didn't remember the metallic moniker at the end

Honestly it should just be called dark green.

Good luck on your purchase.
You will love i.t

Yeah, I was just saying that it was a new color only available on the xB. Sorry for the confusion.

I don't think it's that hard to keep clean but I don't live in snow country either. Road grime when it rains is the worst thing I've had to deal with.

Really like your red brakes. Thought of doing that myself. Was it a pain? Did it take long to dry. Did it need several coats?
Thanks

Thanks! It wasn't too bad. I had to do a lot of taping off. I used engine enamel and did several coats just to make sure it was smooth and durable.

Camouflage Metallic, baBy. Technically, the actual name is Dark Grayish Olive Metallic - Thank goodness they called it "Camo". It's a great color, in darkness, it could be mistaken for BSP or BOP - another reason "Camo" fits.





Here's Dewmerz's Camo too:
