    The article says "Mineral Gray" looks like Ford and Jeep, both have colors called that.

    I remember looking at a brand new Mustang in 2001 that was "Mineral Grey".

    All those pictures look like they used a filter, or some other light source.

    My guess is that to recreate that depth without photo shoot effects, one would almost need some sort of pearlescent over coat on top of the standard mineral gray

    Regardless of the light source, that is a really nice color. I will need to look up the ford from 01 and see if it looks the same.
