Trying to decide on a color

Can anyone post pics of a Diamond Graphite sedan? I'm leaning towards this color. I like the silver too, but my TL is silver and I think I'd like something different. The red is nice, but I have a lead foot and am worried about speeding tickets.

I originally wanted to get twilight blue. I went to the dealer to see it in person and was very disappointed in that there seemed to be a purplish tint to it which I didn't like. So I switched gears and compared the Lakeshore blue with the Diamond Graphite and I gave a very slight edge to Diamond Graphite. When I ordered the car, I ordered Diamond Graphite and graphite interior, but I told the salesman to tell me if a Lakeshore/stone was available let me know.

Purple?

I have an 04 in TB and for the most part it looks black.

When I wash it in the driveway, nieghbors stop to tell me how incredible it looks. I bought it because 9 out of 10 here in Socal are Silver or DG. I also like that the lower panels don't contrast much with the blue.

My TL

Is an 2002 TL-S with NAV.

What I like:
- Brisk acceleration from the 260 HP V-6
-The Nav is really nice; more than "toy" that I thought at first
-Roomy, especially with kid and dog in back
- Xenon HIDS are really great at night

What I hate:
-the seats are too hard! My back and butt hurt on long trips. Haven't they heard of PADDING?
-The dash guages are not well lit and easy to see
-The stereo $$TINKS!!!

I'm hopeful that the G will have better seats (they couldn't possibly be worse), better stereo (have heard very mixed things about the Bose).

Sorry for the crappy quality, it's the best my cameraphone can do! The weather hasn't been nice enough lately for me to take any good pics of my car..BTW, my three favorite colors are Diamond Graphite, White and Lakeshore Slate for the G35 Sedan

05 G35 Diamond Graphite

Although someone got pics up before I could get mine up, here's a different perspective of the 05 Diamond Graphite with Sport Tuned Suspension. The Sport Tuned Suspension Package comes with these 18 in. wheels...

Hope you like it! Just picked it up on Friday!

Picture is attached.

Looks good Brian. I have an 04, premium package, AT with 17" wheels and I wish I had 18's...someday. Right now I need a 14000.00 roof for my house so , wheels will have to wait. But, better to have and enjoy the car with 17" wheels than not have the car at all.
