New Sophisto Gray II or DG2 Paint code B90?? ?

Hi would really appreciate some close up photos of Sophisto Gray II or DG2?? the paint code is B90.

Only just been told by dealer my car is now DG2 B90 paint not the original order of A90 Sophisto Gray Xirallic.

I've been told there is no difference but I find this hard to believe as original pigments only got produced in one factory in Japan?????

My car arrives 30/08/11 but want to put my mind at rest regarding the colour.

Thanks in Advance.

Personally I wouldn't have known that "monkey's" car was a variation of DG if the color wasn't specified. It looks much darker. I will have to see one in person to really discern the difference.
