I love it on the Hummer. I don't like it on the C6.

don't particularly care for it..... but maybe it will work out well for those who pick it if they cancel it after a year or so. just look at all the hubbub nassau blue caused. :crazy:

me personally, i am hoping they bring back steel blue for the next z. :yesnod:

Like others have said, I will make my opinion after seeing it in person.. :(

It appears more of a copper tone than orange..... :sad:

If you are a Tennessee Vol fan it would be cool. Otherwise it sucks. :lolg: :lolg:

Well, it was a gorgeous color on the F-bodies IMO but the color on the C6 looks completely different, although it's the exact same paint color. Must be the lighting or something. That color doesn't photograph well. :smash:

It doesn't look very flashy as of yet, but I'll reserve judgement until I see one in person :yesnod:

I wanted them to bring back the 69 Camaro/Corvette hugger orange.

If there is a right way/wrong way GM will do it wrong everytime :smash: :smash: :smash: :smash:
If I remember correctly, GM did offer Hugger Orange in '99 for the Camaro...it was a one year color due to low demand.... :chevy

I want to see it in person but I would have prefered a Flame Orange like the '75 C3 had.

In another thread, most folks vote for having Chevy offer the C6 in orange. So they make plans to do just that and everyone complains it is not the *right* orange!!

Personally, I think the burnt orange they will offer is the only decent orange there is. The other oranges shown in this thread - and even Millenium Yellow for that matter - are way too garish for me.

I believe people wanted a more sporty orange, not an orange-copper.

This color is some kind of candy-**** tangerine, like the wrapper of a chocolate orange. It's not orange.

Hugger Orange is orange.
Go Mango is orange. Okay, it's mango, but it's more orange than this cake frosting color.

:iagree: I was hoping for a brighter Orange too :( I've seen the Sunset Orange on a few trucks and it was kinda dull.

I was hoping for a shade closer to this...

Default What's the Opinion on Daytona Sunset Orange?

I thought it was kinda crappy when I first saw it - what a terrible color to front for the C6 debut! But, since I've made one of the press photos my desktop wallpaper, it's starting to grow on me. Seeing it in person would be nice.
