Perhaps GM should have kept LRG instead of replacing it with this color, LRG looks much better (IMO).

However we really have not seen it yet. The hood picture, color is in the shadow not a good actual presentation. Where the sun hits the louver cutout the color is considerably lighter, to light? Jury is still out.

My order for a 2015 Z51 3LT DSOM with MSRC is at 3000, and I am still not sure what my car will look like. The pictures on Chevrolet website look good. This picture is alright as well. The fuel door picture is pretty dark. I am keeping the color since it will be a different shade every time that I take pictures of it . The night photos that my buddy takes should turn out incredible.

Personally, I like the color better than most color options...

Add spectra rims with blacked out the windows and you'd have a winner....especially if brownstone interior was available.

Like with Cyber Gray, GM found out lots of people really liked it and actually bought it, so they got rid of it.

Not a fan. It's too dark and not a real orange like I was hoping for.

Looking at the hood at the NCM this morning it looks like it's sunset orange from 05 and 06 with just a hint of atomic orange

Looks like the C6 oranges. I am still hoping for an orange that is closer to the hugger orange of the 69 Camaro.

That is red orange....too close to red. Why can't we get an orange color? They have examples of renders, aftermarket paint jobs, and even other cars, yet Chevy can't seem to make an ORANGE color. It has to be something something something orange. Come on.

Hey guys. Sorry I did not go back to the museum today, so no additional photos of the orange hood that I had promised. We went to the Motorsport Park instead, then the Mrs. had to go shopping....
