Default Sebring Orange

Just saw a new Sebring Orange GS at the dealer. If you haven't seen it in person it really pops. I think it has more of a pop factor than red!

Put a black convertible top or a black stinger on the hatchback, and it really pops.

Thats one of the reasons I decided on going with the SO on my GS. I think it looks much better when I put the stripes on vs before.

something about that color...

Not as cliche as red
Not as gaudy as yellow
Not as bland as white
Not as European as green
Not as common as silver

Just, one of the best colors ever.

Copper from many year ago was pretty close too.

hah, ya that was kind of my thought process. I originally was going to go with a white one, and red is way too cliche as you said.

Polished wheels will make it pop more.

I really like the new Orange ... and though I am a convertible bigot ... I think it looks better on Coupes than Convertibles ...
