I think its the Meteorite Silver,
Hard to tell but I think the Tungsten Silver is a little lighter and it has a subtle purplish hue because theres a little bit of red in the metallic paint.

Looks like Meteorite Silver. I have a Tungsten Silver Vantage and it is a bit lighter than this one.

Doesn't look like Tungsten Silver to me...my car is Tungsten, and the color is warmer than the one in your link.

Tungsten seems like a more popular color. I think I like the blue meteorite a little better though!

New to this forum, and just started shopping for a Vantage. Is this Slate Blue?

Looks like Meteorite Silver to me - which is what I have. Color shows differently depending on the light it is in. "Silver" is somewhat misleading - it is not a "light" shade of color. AM also makes darker colors too ... I can never describe colors ... my daughter is the artist, not me !

I'd love to see Casino Royale Vantage next to Meteorite Silver. I saw the Tungsten next to Casino Royale at the SF car show today. Almost similiar indoors, the Casino Royale has a tint of blue.
