Default SO i have to ask....

I know i might get 'flamed' for asking this because im sure it is in a search somewhere. But i did search and none of the titles looked like what i needed to know...


What was the reason they dropped Solar Orange from the line up in 08? was it not selling, was i the only person that got suckered into likeing it? lol

Brickyard, Liquid Aluminum, Ultra Yellow....

Each year, a special color, one year only.

No big mystery.

Exactly, a lot of car companies do it.

04 Electric Blue

^^^This one seems brighter than redline to me and it is a $500 premium paint color, so I doubt they could be exactly the same. I'd like to see them both side by side to compare. But I don't think there is a one year special color for '08; that's kinda why I asked about Nagaro Red. I'm sure they will always keep a bright red in the lineup although I never thought they would get rid of daytona blue either so you never know.

Well I was hardly "suckered" into liking it but I definitely dig the color. Saw it on the show room floor, sat in it, next day drove it, wrote out a check and took it home.
