Hello forum members, the new colors are available @ your dealer, I have just received the 2015 exterior colors, including DSOM, color code G1H, and the new shark grey metallic, which is sharp. That is color code G1B, thank you for your time, Anthony j.

Your dealer got cars in those colors? Or he got color chips?

There are Shark Gray cars at numerous dealers already. But the first deliveries of DSOM cars is actual news.

I was at a funeral yesterday, and way across the street was a DS(rise)OM with a stripe that I can only describe as orange creamcicle. The car was a beautiful color (darker than DS(set)OM. I'm not sure the stripe was a good color, though.

Sorry about the quality, all I had on me was my phone.

In the pic it looks more like crystal red with orange stripes.

Like this one I saw posted in another thread...

It was orange, No doubt about it!

I've seen plenty of red, which this wasn't. I could see it, even though it is difficult to see in the pics. It's not like I could wander away in the middle of the ceremony to get closer to take a better picture. I could, however, take "pics of the pipers" like many were doing.

It left before the end of the ceremony.

In your description you state it was darker than Sunset Orange, however the hood on display at NCM was much brighter, closer to the old Atomic Orange. Being no DSunriseOM cars have been completed yet I doubt the car you saw was the new DSOM, could have been a after market paint job, but to me the car in the picture was a Crystal Red car, not Torch Red.
