Just had a look on the standox web site a paint company we use 86f code comes out as blue steel metalic 1999 to 2000 and cool grey colour comes out as cool grey opal metalic 1997 to 1999 with a colour code of 55d go to any big bodyshop supplier with these codes ,they should show you a colour chit for both which will give you a better idea of the colour your after.

subaru should have got that snapper to do their pics, as theirs don't do it justice if this is what it looks like in the flesh

If you are respraying the car from scratch have you thought about one of the Audi greys ??
There's a very stealty grey Audi which I come across quite regularly........A4 with twin exhausts and quick as sick
Looks real close to the USA colour !!

06 STI USA comes in two grey colors:
Steel gray metallic (paint code?, can anyone supply?)
and
Crystal gray metallic (paint code 48W, Can anyone confirm?)
ref http://www.subaru.com/shop/colors.js...=WRX_STI_SEDAN
Guess gray in US is grey in UK
