Not to my liking. Looks a bit like a fire chief's car.

or may be a orange extract manufacturer's car

Seriously though, what's the purpose of this color is beyond me , I think such color will get you noticed by much more that already is an eye catching car in more restrained colors

Not for the majority, including me. Looks like a taxi waiting for decals.

I'm actually impressed that they allowed that! There will be a buyer for that car (just not me), because San Marino Blue is the only special color I want.

I prefer my cars stealthy as opposed to flashy. Not "ARREST ME RED" (caps on purpose)

That was my first thought when I saw it. It's been there a couple of months already according to the salesperson I spoke to.

I always appreciate the "unique and different"! It demonstrates character and a "think outside the box" lifestyle. That being said... It's unique and even cool IMO. Not sure I'd like it everyday for years though.

Century West has a track record at creating the most interesting or most ugly mash up's.... IMO orange does nothing for the lines of this car .... would not mind this orange on my F12 though.

Looks like a UK car that's been accidentally shipped to the US They'd sell this in the UK in no time.

Though while we do funky exterior colours, it'll have to be white or black interior only or it won't sell. Red occasionally is acceptable but that's it.

This car needs no license plate, everyone will know who owns it. Not my taste, although I had a similar color E30 M3 once. Oh well, youths!
