It usually is, but there are many variations. Mine is grey with strong blue undertones. I've even had one with strong green undertones which would look olive in certain lighting. That's the beauty of Anthra, it is such a chameleon.

Thanks so much! It was listed as brand new, does not show signs of wear, hardware has no scratches and interior is pristine. Is it possible then to have older models still available somewhere?

Sure. Old stock that didn't sell, etc. maybe it was never carried by its previous owner? There are many possibilities.

Sure! It's a magenta Day, just not sure of the year.

Saira, could you tell us which Magenta it is. I compared it to my 2005 and it looks different, but you can see better through the fading, lighting...

I think it will be safe to wait for second opinion. Magenta fades in funny shades, this one looks nothing like my 2005, but the colours were so similar.
