Here's some pics of a 2017 GS350 F-sport in Smoky Granite Mica. It's my new favorite

This car has a black interior. This color would look better with Rioja red or Flaxen interior.

That is a hideous color, dull & drab. Why not just offer battleship grey instead?!?! To each his own I guess.

I think you really need to see it in person in the sunlight. It's a mica so it's anything but dull and drab as it's kinda "sparkly"

It's an older color that was replaced by Nebula Gray. I always thought Nebula Gray was a very flat dull color (even though my 16 GS is Nebula Gray ) and always lamented that it replaced Smokey Granite.
