Default "Lava Gray" vs "Meteor Gray"?

Which Gray Audi color is the one looks most like a "Primer" Gray color? Less metallic and more "flat" in color? I guess I need to go back to a dealership and see...

Meteor gray is often described as being a flat gray, primer like color.

I own a Meteor Gray Audi A3. From experience the color really depends allot on the lighting conditions. In cloudy/dark lighting conditions, meteor gray does look like a flat gray primer. In sunny conditions meteor gray comes to life, in my perception it looks like a rich dark gray combined with a subtle blueish pearly hue combined with a fine sparkle.

Lava gray I would describe as a very dark pencil lead gray (almost black) with a light sparkle to it.

Search the forum on topics on meteor gray, there are a few topics discussing and show casing meteor gray. I checked them out a few months ago when deciding what color A3 to purchase.

I for one am very happing with my meteror gray A3.
