I have a silverstone and too had to make the decision without seeing it. I pulled the trigger on one and love it. When I first saw it on the truck at the dealer, it was a cloudy day. Immediately I thought "oh crap... its baby blue...". But literally a split second later it wasn't baby blue but had this blue "hue" to it and depending on the reflection, streaks of silver. In the daylight its pretty much pure silver and can vaguely see any of the blue hue, but depends on the angle. It looks different in different light which is kinda cool.

I love it. It is also VERY easy to take care of. No hairline scratches from washes etc. Still looks pristine as a daily driver. Great all around color.

One suggestion though, the the Lux H8 LEDs. That yellowish angel eye from the factory looks pretty terrible on Silverstone. With the new angel eyes it looks a TON better.
One thing to add though, and this might sound wierd, I put a lot of focus on the interior color first. We get 2-3 months of 100 degree weather in San Antonio and I was leaning heavily on finding a light color that went with the silver novillo interior (or one of the light tan but that came with its own problems). Having a small daughter, I decided the silver interior was my best option. Finding an exterior color to go with it pretty much backed me into the silverstone exterior (yes there were other options, but the silverstone was also easier to take care of and still looks good with a small amount of dirt).

So the heat of where I live had a large impact on my choices.
