When Did Decuma Gray First Become Available On Avensis?

[ukjamesy]

The Avensis i've ordered is Decuma Grey. One of my neighbours has an 05 Avensis and it is also grey, but it looks different to the one I've ordered. Am I just imagining it or was there ever a different grey colour available? (guess it could be the light and the fact he doesn't seem to keep it polished much).

My '06 Avensis is a grey called alsace granite. But there was another grey called metropolis grey which went out sometime in late '05.

Thanks. I thought it looked different. I'm guessing his is the metropolis grey.

Alsace Granite was dropped, and replaced by Decuma Grey, at the facelift.
