I have a 1999 Hugger Orange Camaro SS that had a small production run. It's a 30th Anniversary color from 1969. Hugger Orange has a bit of red in it as opposed to AO. I would say AO is an orange that looks closer to Pontiac's 1970 Orbit Orange. It's a truer orange color.

I'm still trying to find a pictures that realistically depicts AO. I'm really torn between getting AO vs AYM. Based on the pictures in this thread not sure if AO would be a good choice. Wish I could see it in person so I could make a good decision on it.

That thought and that picture had me trying to make a custom license plate around that concept work. CRMC8LE is about the closest I could come up with. Had to go in another direction if I end up getting a custom plate, as I was not to enthused about it.

AO doesn't look washed out to me in pictures, it looks orange. Sebring has a lot of red in it to me, and looks red in more pictures than it looks orange. Amplify in some pictures looks very slightly red, more often a deep orange to a light orange depending on lighting.
Can't wait to see it in person, hopefully in the next few weeks.

Wow, huge difference between SO and AO! Didn't realize AO looks that washed out compared to SO. Or is that just from the lighting and angles?

Ok this might be a long shot, but I thought I'd ask here first. Does anyone know of a gloss vinyl wrap material that is very close in color to Amplify Orange? I have an idea for a project.

When are you supposed to get yours? Yeah, TR is very popular but there's something to be said about getting a color that's less common and more distinctive. You have to be pretty excited knowing you'll be getting yours soon!

Mine is currently sitting at the courtesy delivery dealership undergoing PDI. Just need to finish up my paperwork with MM and get PDI done so I can pick it up. Hopefully this week as I just added it to my insurance.
