Pictures of exterior colors?

Are there any pictures of exterior colors on the web like you find in brochures? I realize I really need to go to a dealer and see the cars to appreciate the colors, but I'm just trying to get a feel for the difference, e.g., what's the difference between Diamond Graphite and Desert Platinum?

Go into our Rides section a peruse all the colours for the Coupe and Sedan. I believe there's a sample of every colour there. Go here

I took a peak at Rides and found 3 shades of silver: Diamond Graphite, Desert Platinum, and too my surprise, Silverstone. Unfortunately from the pics, they all look pretty much the same. My guess is they are all metallic, DP is probably the warmest. But which one is the lightest?

Brilliant Silver is the lightest of the 3. As you say, D/P is the warmest, and D/G (Silverstone here in Canada) is a tad darker. The D/P and D/G are strange colours tho, they change so much with the light.

The silver is pretty much what you'd expect it to be. For Desert you need to find a good pic with decent lighting. Diamond you need to see in person, I've never seen a picture accurately reflect it. You can see the color change slightly just by walking around it on a reasonably sunny day.
