No, it is purple/blue in the highlights every time I see it in real life and it totally kills but looks awesome on images. And it is called Mineral Grey.

All the photos Artemis posts are edited with a lot of contrast etc and it makes the color look about 250% better than it really is. The first photos are lighter than what I see in real life too. The photo below is how it appears when I see it. Darker and just dull. If it really looked like in the first images I would get it 100% over all other colors.
