what's up with every manufacturer making an orange color for every model... ?
I think the spicy orange & the Nissan orange (350z) are good colors.. but... if this continues there may be a backlash against orange cars when half the cars on the lot are orange... (sorry rant) :o

to make this thread not completely worthless here are some pics:

I think you're right because before 2002 I never saw a production car in bright orange now they're everywhere....
 
its sema... they always do outlandish paint jobs. I wouldnt say its a standard. Most orange cars are of a limited run.

Aghhhh....Correction.....Mandarin Copper metallic pearl...Trust me ...I know....I painted my Del sol that color a long time ago when it first came out on the fords..Still a classy color...Bold but classy.(thumb)
 
spicy orange is the original and still looks the best... close second is nissan's orange. the one an the RSX is fug.
 
Wow, you think Mazda Invented spicy orange? For starters they ripped the exact color off of OPEL.

Moreover, I think since MOPAR's branding color has been orange for the last 40 or so years, they might have dibs.

Mandarin Copper metallic is what ford calls it. Its a metallic paint, definately not pearl.
 
to clarify, i meant import wise, such as in the scene we're in with our cars... economy rockets if you will... the basis of the thread was about how orange cars are starting to show up everywhere, i believe this was brough on by the spicyness... then other companies started doing it, now it's huge! obviously spicy orange MSP's were not the first ever orange cars.
 
I still dig the orange that was used on the latest MSMs (I forget the name, Burnt something). Great color for the car.
