Non existent. Everyone who orders seems to keep the black highlights, which is how I am planning to order mine. It seems to have a low take rate though so getting that body color pic may be difficult.

Eagle eye user @Greg_c8 spotted these deliveries at Rick Hendricks Duluth. It's always interesting to get a color comparison.

This photo makes HGM, my current preferred color for my order, look positively dull. AO just pops out of this line up.

It is certainly the best eye catcher in the picture.

Thanks, I agree! I have Blaque Diamond BD-F25 Black wheels sitting in my living room that will really finish the look once installed.

Thanks, congrats to you as well!

I was bummed at first when I realized I would miss out on Sebring but with seeing both Sebring and AO side by side im so glad it turned out the way it has.

It doesn't matter what color it is, it's just a bad *** car. I do like the softer AO look, but SO is awesome too. We'll all be quite happy!!!

Finally saw an AO in person yesterday, definitely looks much better in person than in pictures. However I still think it’s a huge downgrade from Sebring. It completes the “exotic” colors swath though, and that much I can appreciate. If you love orange then you’ll love your AO car! Just need a green with a similar tone now

you should hang out in the HSG thread for a bit, many there are convinced that color is green…

Congrats on the RM delivery and thanks for taking the comparison pics. It's little gems like these that keep the thread alive.

Did you catch a glimpse of the interior? I like the visible details on the non black colored interior but, not being a fan of the natural tones that only leaves sky cool gray. I'm a bit nervous of such a white color long term.

I will take interior pix if theres an AO there this coming Tuesday. I have to swing by the dealership anyways.

You all with AO orders will love it!
