I can't think of a comeback that he's going to reply with unless the extra 4 cylinders were an optional extra that I wasted money on.

What he said was just a stupid as the question he asked. "Oh, so it's eight cylinders?" Like I said, I can't be held responsible for what he asks or what he answers because he was born before I was. If he can't figure out, half an engine is 4 cylinders, then a full engine is 8 cylinders, I don't know what he thinks is the correct answer.

Wonderful, my friend! Congrats on buying a truly bad ass car and congrats on having one very cool dog in the family.

Believe or not, 50 years ago about this time in the spring of '69 I bought what was my second Mustang, a '69 Mach I - dark green. Also - and this is really weird - the color of your car is called "Magnetic" in the States; I know because I test drove one that color two days ago.

That's the colour it's called here as well, Magnetic which is basically is a metallic grey. Thanks for looking and commenting.

One of our cars,a 2015 Impala (newer Epsilon platform- Opel design) is grey. The official GM name for the colour is 'Ashen Grey'.

Now, if I looked in the mirror and discovered that I was ashen grey...I would make an immediate trip to the hospital.

I think GM could find a better car colour description.

Maybe the person who named it was getting over a heavy weekend and felt that matched his skin pallor at the time
