AG is a coupe-only color. Roadster comes in the darker Nimbus Gray.

Because of the rare nature of the Aviator Grey exterior, many folks confuse Nimbus Grey with Aviator Grey. As mentioned earlier, the Roadster is not spec'd for AG. Too bad - it's a cool color - looks great on the Coupe.

I'm kinda glad the roadster doesn't come in AG. Makes our AG coupes even more unique!
