Seen it posted in all colors except LBB.

There is a pic on Instagram right now of an LBB out there but in a dark garage and just the front end.

Please post them up if you have seen it out there!

I ordered mine LBB but still on fence if HS will pop more in person.

I saw it in HS today in person. None of my pics came out very well. I saw it not far from what I am pretty sure was a MW M4. HS is a bit darker and more gray than MW. It shows its silver tone in direct light, but in overcast conditions it takes on more of a non-metallic cement look. The Misano pics are pretty representative.

It's a good color I think, but not a color that pops or will draw attention.

Thanks for your thoughts.

How does HS look compared to Porsche's Chalk color? In pics it seems that it may be similar, albeit maybe a tad lighter in color?

I haven’t seen HS in person, but pictures look the same to me as you are describing - I think both colors are awesome.

It's a bit lighter and has metallic silver particles that show in direct light. It's probably the most similar color I can think of though.
