If you really want orange you could look into Scion's xB Release Series Orange: http://www.scion.com/xb_release_series/gallery.html

That is a link to the website. I guess its supposed to be the brightest orange put on a car. I have a friend in TX that had a bug (Which unfortunatly met a wall pretty hard), anyway, he got one of thsoe, in the Release series, and the color is extremly orange

Here's an idea. That scion orange, which is awesome, carbon fiber bits (if used) in a dark, dark grey, then cobalt/obsidian(shiny dark black) badging and trim like on some of the newer toyotas/nissans.

Very nice color. Have you looked at the price of that type of paint. I think a paint job with that type of paint can cost upwards of 6K...

Have you ever painted a car before. That would be a very expensive paint to start with. If you were to mess up you would just cry.

Personaly I'm not a big fan of the 2 tone paint job. Too cal-look...

You can get the trim done is black chrome plating (seems like an oxymoron), but it does exist!

That would set it apart than just painted or powder-coated.

I like that scion orange, or how about that 350Z burnt orange color...:drool:
