I really like Sebring because it pops in the sun. The Amplify looks dull to me. My wife loved amplify and was one of the colors we would’ve considered.
The orange in the pic is definitely Sebring.

Sebring for sure, or as I call it, red-orange.

Very common, but poor, misconception.

AO does anything beside look dull, I can attest to that.

Here is Sebring Orange and Amplify Orange side by side at Spring Mountain. SB on the left and AO on the right, SB also in next row.

Saw an AO yesterday on an overcast day. It definitely looked dull and muted and very "meh".

I agree that on a bright sunny day, the AO isn't dull at all.

All anyone can attest to is what they like best, which is usually what they decided to acquire.

I'll split the baby here and attest that I had a Sebring Orange C7, which I loved, but I would also be happy with Amplify Orange. They are both nice colors, but Sebring is definitely a bolder color.

Sebring > amplify to me. My c8 order would have been Sebring. I'm not considering amplify as an alternative.

Ordered Ampliy, couldn’t be happier, looks exotic and lots of comments. Prefer it over Sebring tomato orange.
