The colors quoted in the article are 2007 colors. For 2008 you have the Solar Flare Metallic-28U (xtra cost paint),
midnight blue metallic,
black,
birch white,
Carbon Flash Metallic-58U (xtra cost paint, and only on the H3x), boulder gray metallic,
sonoma red (only on the H3x) and
victory red.

That is a list from the ordering guide. However, when I ran the VIN on a dark gray metallic H3 the other day, the vehicle ID system stated the color of the paint was Graphite Metallic. So, is it Graphite or Carbon Flash Metallic? All I can say is it is a darn good looking color. I believe the problem might be that this same paint is available on the Acadia and is called Graphite Metallic, while it appears marketing wants to call it Carbon Flash on the H3.
