We've discussed this not too long ago:

Quartz shadow is almost similar to Flint Mica in depth but has more of a blue/purple tone.

You can tell the difference if you see them in person. Online, it is a little bit more difficult.

A GS300 with quartz shadow mettalic exterior at night is BEAUTIFUL! And thats an understatement. Iv seen it at a dealership - it is their demo car. They had it in the service center to get pinstripes done and film shield put on. They were waxing and detailing the car and so on and so forth (this was 3 weeks ago)....anyway the car was parked like right on the outskirt sof the service center but was still inside. the service center was open..it was at night - with the parking lot lighting hitting the GS...and belive me guys - it was absolutely a SPECTACLE....i thought it was flint mica and i was stunned. When I got close - i was like damm that is a NICE color! and it had a light gray interior with it which looked AWESOME! The dealer called me a couple times asking me if i wanted to get that. They are willign to give me a true discount on it because it is a demo model with about 500 miles on it. Im still thinking it over cuz others have driven the car - who knwos how they used the brakes or gas..lol (Im just like that )


But its a beautiful color on this car.
