I've got an A5 in Monsoon and that looks very similar to it.

Not Daytona. I believe it's Monsoon.

Here's a known Daytona Grey picture. Lighting can be tricky, but it looks very similar to me.

Okay, I admit I might be wrong. Took some pictures last weekend of a Daytona Gray outside in the sunlight and it looked very different...much more green than in both the known Daytona picture and the one below.

I'm not saying you're wrong....I'm just saying that the colors are close enough that it's easy to mistake one for another. Especially when you consider different lighting and that these pictures are on different computer monitors. I honestly have no idea if the car is actually Monsoon or Daytona or even a different color entirely.

I had Daytona Gray. See the following...

It is definitely Monsoon.

Are you sure you weren't looking at Meteor Grey? That color has lots of green in it when in direct sunlight.
