The cross between nasty and nice. Dirty, but not to the point of grimy. To be gritty is to be grimy in all the right ways, and classy in the others. Being gritty is good--it's a lifestyle. It's like having a little bit of grimy spice on your otherwise classy life.

George: "But, I mean, it's still such a nice car."
Kevin: "I guess I'm just rockin' that gritty look now."
