Wow, absolutely love the color and how it morphs at angles in the sun and shade.

For me, in bright light and moving is much more interesting. Under cover, the color is more muted and hints more towards red than orange. The latter is deeper in tone, former is more metallic. Love it!

Glad I could help. One thing I forgot to mention, it definitely grabs ones attention while on public display, so it's no wallflower and you will get noticed. For me that took a bit of getting use to, as I'm not Atype by nature. Now, I just roll with the spotlight.

Curious, what's you other color under consideration?

^cannot go wrong with any of the M specific colors, all of them are unique, newer additions YMB & AY or SS and SO all are wonderful. Online pics, as good as they are, just don't do them justice.

Yeah, me too...BLK for the last 15 yrs the transition is, to say the least, interesting!

Nice Color!

VMRWheels · 10-27-2014, 07:47 PM

Love this color the more and more I see it

mntbiker · 10-27-2014, 10:14 PM

Great post! It's so true about SO... sometimes it looks really red, other times a muted orange color, and everything in between. Stunning color in person.

Having seen nearly all of the colors at M School last month, SO and YMB are definitely my favorites.
