    Nimbus grey is pearlescent and so, more expensive than a metalic / flat colour.

    Possibly, but to me.. it doesn't look pearlescent.. Bet there wouldn't be that much difference in Nimbus grey and a flat grey in that sort of colour.

    Personally, to me it looks like it in primer.
    There are some nice 5's that use grey but only as a contrast.
