Who can honestly say that this is not the greatest paint in the history of Earth?

Keep in mind that these pics actually don't even do it justice...

I'm not sure why.. but it looks awesome in pics but not so good on the road? :wtf:

I saw one the other day and it didn't look impressive at all.. infact it looked kinda like a weak orange/pinkish color. Yes, it was an MSP and yes stock.
 
looks nice girth, is your car lowered?

ps - how does it feel to venture out of the msp section lol?
 
Yes, everytime it is a nice sunny day my car looks so good especially if I have just finished washing it.
 
Its a beautiful color. I love it personally. I saw the black mica close up for the first time the other day and the flakes are amazing. :D

Not going against you or anything... but I feel the exact opposite here... I've seen the Spicy Orange up close... and I think it's amazing... but I think it looks even hotter from a distance!!! Man, what I wouldn't do for a Spicy MSP :cool:

No no.. I agree.. i think that upclose it looks badass.. I'm just saying what I saw on a sunny day from about 50-100ft.

Thanks Razor. Nope, it's not lowered....the rear wheel almost makes it appear lowered though so it must be the shadows or something.

And yes, I feel liberated being out of the chaos that is the MSP section for once! I can actually keep up with this section lol:p

As much as I love the spicy orange I agree that it doesn't look as good from far away. But really that's true for any of the Mica paint...the orange actually seems to turn a little peach-ish from far away. Doesn't bother me at all though.
 
i did notice it seems to look peachish from far away...i really think the laser blue looks ok from far away though, although it tends to look lighter as well.

How about being the first Spicy MP5. It would look sweet as hell!
Man, don't even tempt me with ideas like that... my bank account just can't handle that!! But if it could, I'd be first in line... I think there's like 3 Spicy MSPs in my city, so needless to say, they're hard to find... but every time I drive by one I almost cause a damn accident 'cause my neck's all craned to check it out!!

lol, glad to see some people that like it as much as I do....there are a lot of haters of it out there. Not sure if it's jealousy or what.:) (sun)
 
i never really knew it had that glittery look to it ...

i always thought it was a flat color like black. on the road, it's much harder to tell the glittery part of it.
