Thanks for the confirmation that the steel gray is the way to go. I got back in my Aero last night and was glad to be there. The Arc was nice, but a much different ride. Softer, less road manners, whereas the Aero reacts very quickly and just feels light and poised and ready to launch. I saw the traction control light quite a bit in the rain -- must be my heavy foot not knowing really what to do with that automatic, but the Pirellis were not giving me the traction I usually have with the Primacys. My saleswoman said she much prefers the Aero -- the Arc is too heavy- handed for her tastes.
BTW, the rotor was fine (no crack), but they did replace the A/C expansion valve. Hooray! No more groaning (I hope).
