DSOM makes me smile

I concur. Apparently it makes others smile as well. I'm always getting complements on how beautiful the color is.
True story, I told one of my co-workers that I just bought a Corvette. He asked, and I quote, "it's not that gay tweety bird yellow that I see every vette in, is it?" I took him outside to see it and he was practically drooling.
Anyways, gorgeous car! Don't forget to wave!

I'm kind of partial to the color myself. It feels good when another Corvette owner approaches you and says he wishes they had that color when they bought their car. Hmmmmmmm, wonder what the C7 would look like in DSOM?

Daytona Sunset Orange Metallic - LOVE it!!
So....living in Daytona, it just seemed like a color I should have.
I had a 2005, then got a 2006 Z06 (282 of them were made in DSOM, so it's a very exclusive model!). My brother-in-law bought my 2005. Here's a picture of my Z06 visiting the 2005 up in NJ:

I really love my DSOM and still get so many compliments. I'd love to get a C7, but don't think I can part with such a gorgeous color. It would look pretty great on the new vettes and I wonder if they will bring it back since it was a fairly limited color. One can only hope they will.

DSOM is one hot color. I actually saw another one parked at the grocery store today. Think it was maybe a 2007? It had the two tone seats with the embroidered stitching.

DSOM was only available in 2005 and 2006.
In 2007 they went to AO (Atomic Orange), which is also a great color!!

There's one DSOM ZR1!!
In the Nat'l Corvette Museum, there's a ZR1 mule on display (or at least it was on display when I was there a couple years ago):
I guess it probably started out as a Z06 that they used for engineering development of the ZR1.
I wish I could get a ZR1 in DSOM, but I'll settle for my Cyber Gray one!

Thanks Guys...as far as the wave...I passed 4 other vetts yesterday...none waved back...but oh well.
I searched for a while before I bought mine last year and decided for this over black or red. I just don't see many of them in this color.
