Seeing them on your own car settles it, free, in a couple of minutes.
See both on your own carGloss Charcoal Metallic vs Satin Dark Gray Metallic: the differences.
The first difference between Gloss Charcoal Metallic and Satin Dark Gray Metallic is depth: Satin Dark Gray Metallic reads darker, so it hides body lines that Gloss Charcoal Metallic shows. The second is not the finish: both are metallic films, so the sheen is a separate decision from the colour. Low light, curved panels and your own trim decide the rest, and none of that shows up on a swatch. Render both on your car and compare them there.
