I have almost the exact same car except mine has red seats, console and door accents on the 2LT package.

Just an interesting fact for all the Shark Gray fans - on the BUILD Sheet for the car, the color is listed as FUSION GRAY.

If you recall, when the color was first introduced, I remember reading something from Chevrolet that said they were undecided whether to call it Fusion or Shark. I guess they never made up their mind!

2014 was Cyber Gray
Then came Shark Gray, then Watkins Glen Gray, and now we have Shadow Gray. Hell, I may still be missing one of them. Seems like they've changed gray more than some folks change their undies...

You got it right.
Cyber Gray was 2014 only (see my avatar)
Shark Gray was 2015/2016 if I remember right
Watkins Glen Gray was 2017/2018 (again, if I remember right)
Shadow Gray is 2019

The car in the OP is without a doubt Shark Gray.. My '15 Z51 was SG, and the OP confirmed it's SG in a later post.

Seeing now that the OP's post was in late December of '14, the car is most likely a '15 which is the first year of SG.

Ah yes...I thought OP had a '14, but see what you're saying now and the photos do look like Shark Gray to me as well.
