Default Who's 07 Solar Orange in Bellingham?

I saw one parked at the Bellis Fair Mall (or whatever it's called) in Bellingham yesterday while hanging out with a friend.

He was like "hey look at that LeMans Z"

As I walked closer I'm like "Dude that's not a Lemans, it looks like the new Solar Orange on the 07's."

As we get to the car, I'm like "I gotta check out this new hood."

And lo and behold, it was an 07. Guess I just have a keen eye.

Anyways, I'm curious whether it belongs to someone on the forums?

It actually is a very pretty color, a bit "soft" for my tastes, but nice nontheless. I can see the appeals of the color.

Not it is NOT disgusting like forum members say.

You guys who don't care to look at the actual car in RL . . . . . . lol.

I think the only thing that can fix the SO without repainting and make it look sporty would be black 20" Volks or black Works wheels, anything to contrast that, honestly when did dayglow make it back from the 80's?

You guys fail.

Personally, I think the San Marino Blue is DISGUSTING.

It's definitely back in certain circles like streetwear and snowboarder/skiier wear. Although I avoid the bright stuff for the most part, I do like the dayglo-lookin' base on my Ride Decade board

I have seen it in person and I was surprised. It kinda more about where you live.. For example if you live in WA, meh it's ok, If you live in TX ok it cool. But if you live somewhere like Miami or LA, and have a Solar Orange Roadster with 19" Volk Gunmetal or Gold GT-s then you R the Chit, Its all about the Sunshine, it has a heavy amount of gold flek in it.

It looked very muscle car to me, very rich. Then again it was clouding which helps to make the color appear supersaturdated.

BTW I'm the friend, I'm not so much an idiot as I am just a 300ZX guy.

The rims also looked very muscle car (very nice, I'd love to have a pair) to me
