I much prefer the 40th quartz (call me biased). Because it was a special anniversary color I'm glad gun metallic is different. However, if I can't get the 40th quartz, I would choose gun metallic. I didn't like how the 35th Anniversary Z had special wheels, and then the following year, those same wheels were standard on all Touring models.

I agree, darker silvers/greys look good. 5 years ago when I bought my FX45, the darker silver choice was diamond graphite, which was very close to platinum graphite. Since the late 1990's light silvers have become very popular so the darker diamond graphite was a fresh change at the time...just like gun metallic is also a nice change.

My 40th quartz is hard to keep clean though...almost as hard as black.
