From what I've seen so far Gecko is not the same as Dodge's GWE color.. It looks more like the older color, Sublime

Winter Chill can be found under the 2012 GC. It is listed as True Blue Pearl...but it is actually Winter Chill when you did into it.

ID:	208283 The two samples look pretty similar though. I think the pic you posted was a photoshop using the swatch posted in the other 2012 colors thread.

It would make sense that GWE & Gecko are the same, since Dodge has recently used GWE, i'm curious now too if they are the same.

I was holding out for black forest green, but if it looks like that I'm going to switch to something else.

Don't forget about Deep Water Blue . . which is lovely IMO and i have it, but I'm wanting a 12', the problem as you have stated is that they don't have any "dark" blues . . . and i completely despise the Cosmos Blue . . . ughh !

Saw a Dozer in person today. It looked Tennessee Vols orange on the first pass and then when I drove by the next time it looked like Yellow with a little bit of orange. I'll keep holding out until Gecko comes out I guess and then decide then.
