It's a BMW color. Aston offered colors that came from other marques.

Hi...in Grants book page 232...only Jet Black
and a few other black colors listed such as black bear..Nero black...carbon black etc...even under other manufacturers colors...no piano black

I would check the vin and color under hood or in trunk to verify..

Safe driving

The Aston and BMW carbon blacks are the same in name only. The BMW Carbon black contains a lot more blue.

My Aston is Nero Black Metallic, and is gorgeous. My build sheet lists it as a sample match, and the dealer told me it was a Ferrari spec color. Either way, I prefer it over the Jet and Onyx...

Recently I had the pleasure of seeing a Ceramic Grey in person, and I was more than a little jealous :-)

Cleanliness is what it is. To simplify, I had mine wrapped and coated with Modesta.

If I had the option to spec a new car today, I would stick with a non-black color for sure!

Make sure you are using Modesta's shampoo and other upkeep products to maintain the coating!!!!!! All coatings need maintenance, just as much as a regular sealants. Just if you didnt already know. Enjoy your weekend
