As many here know, the wife and I have owned 4 C3's; and by far the most loved were our 1973 and 1982 CE.
Imagine my surprise at the NCM's bash on Friday// where they introduced the "Atlantic Trim" option package for the 2015 C7.
First off, the base paint color is new for 2015; called "Shark Gray". This is very close to the CE color, and the C5 Pewter color.They then added a "Fusion Gray" colored stinger stripe to the hood, and painted the heat extractor this same color:

and they painted the bezels surrounding the tail lights this Fusion Gray:

and the side vents are the same FG color:

This is almost exactly the same treatment the 82 CE received.
it was tough getting pics that were truly representative of what was being offered here; the Fusion Gray parts aren't quite as dark as they appear in the pics. The color has got to be a clone of what was used on the dark parts of the 1982 CE.
As a '82 CE appreciater... I was totally surprised at what they did.
