Default Tungsten purple?

I didnt have my digicam at the time but yesterday during an overcast day (actually it was cloudy with a chance of flooding ) i saw a Tungsten V6 mustang. The color looks really different in that kind of light. It almost looked purple. At first i thought it was a new color for 07. You tungsten guys know what i'm talking about? In the sun it looks like silver, but in darkness the color seems to come out.

I like it.

It has a blueish tint to it when it is overcast. Maybe a little purple... but mainly blue I think and like you said silver in the sun.

purple is right!!! thats why i bought a used 05 mineral grey rather than a new tungsen, to much on the girly side (no offense to yungsen owners).

Tungsten looks really purple during the day but grey at night.

I haven't noticed any purple in my car. Odd.

They actually mix purple in when they are mixing paints to get Tungsten grey.
