This *may* look like Silverstone in my photographs, but as DarkSubRosa says, its definitely not Silverstone. I have seen a Silverstone up close, and thats quite a few shades lighter, and has less pearl flakes in it. If you are thinking in shades of grey, then Silverstone would be "light grey", Synchro would be "medium gray" and Moonrock would be "dark grey. Anyway the Synchro Silver colour code is NH-745M. I understand there is also a colour called Chicane Silver. Y'all in the US get a lot more colours; here in Canada we only get the basics - Berlina Black, Formula Red, Indy Yellow Pearl, Platinum White Pearl, Synchro Silver Metallic, and Apex Blue Pearl.
Synchro is also not as warm as Silverstone. I had a scrap fender sprayed in Moonrock and Synchro to compare it to my Silverstone before I did the repaint.
It's not noticeable in photos, but it's definitely a shade darker/cooler .

There's so much discussion about the various silvers. I've compiled an image that shows the difference between the four "silvery" colours - Sebring, Silverstone, Synchro/Chicane and Moonrock.
