Has the color been released yet? We really want to see one in the flesh.

Yes. They are starting to be delivered. This video from Rick Conti shows it well with a good camera.

I was at NCM yesterday and was told that 2022 deliveries will begin this week. I didn’t see any of them (AO) in the PDI area, but I’m sure there will be one on the boulevard soon, if you want to see it in person. The only problem is, with their crappy cameras, I don’t think you will be able to distinguish the difference.

I looked at the cameras Friday night and thought the car on delivery #1 was an orange car. When I got there Saturday morning, it was actually Red Mist.

Larry,
That's exactly what we did. One of the cars looked AO , but I called the NCM and they said it was red. We'll head out there for a lunch if they have an AO car ready to deliver.

I was at Ciocca about a week ago and there were 2022's on the lot. No AO, but there were Hypersonic Grey's and C8.r's. And a lot of ugly low profile spoilers.

Look a lot like Rapid Blue in that it's hard to capture. Conti's video and some othe rpics make it look almost pastel when it's not.

That is one fantastic orange. Looks great with black trim and wheels.

So far, hands down the best color on the C8.
