Is Alloy supposed to be about a match for Eleanor?

I was chatting with a Ford salesman earlier today and he said that the new Alloy color is supposed to pretty much match the color on Eleanor. He did say that he's not seen the color in person to verify that but he's interested to see what Alloy looks like when they get their first vehicle in that color.

So is that story correct? My wife and I were thinking Tungsten for my car but now Alloy is a possibility because my wife thinks Eleanor is a great-looking Mustang. (Hard to argue that point... )

Search the site, Alloy is really dark, almost black, gray.
Eleanor was more Tungsten IMO.

I think Eleanor was a shade between Mineral Gray and Tungsten.

Tungsten is definitely closer. I think the official color of Eleanor was Pepper Grey or something to that effect. IMO I think that Tungsten has more depth in color than the original Eleanor car did (by original I mean the remake).

IMO Generation II Eleanor was definitely a lighter shade than Alloy Grey.
