Again.. Congrats to you and all the soon to be 10 series owners..
It's actually quite subtle based on angle and lighting. From a cursory glance it can come off close to Argento. Under direct light and reflection you notice hues of green and gold. Shadows/indirect light help to induce a bluer tone. If you can stand to watch the ridiculously stupid extended 10 series commercial in HD, you'll see the paint quite well. Note the gold and green hues around the 40sec mark and how the color goes blue at dusk.

It's definitely not a 'hey look at me' color, more of a 'hmm...something about that color is different' sort of look.
