My son and I need to make a color choice for a flared car that is at The Metal Surgeon in Denver Colorado. I would like to see cars that color to make a choice. Can I look at someone's cars here in Denver?

I only have an opinion to give. Tangerine on a flared car is amazing. It looks like candy.

Hmmmmm....tough call.

Signal Orange - http://www.p914.com/p914_paint_L20E_71.htm
Tangerine - http://www.p914.com/p914_paint_L21E_70.htm

Cameras always have a way of getting in the way when looking at paint.

My son's first choice was tangerine, then he went to signal. It is really hard to tell what something is really going to look like until you see it on the car. I like them both.

Too many colors, not enough cars...

Have you played with the Visualizer?

http://www.eggscollective.org/914visualize...visualizer.html

Granted not the same as seeing it in person, but it might help...

Good luck, not an easy call.

If you really want to get noticed go with Signal Yellow....

My cars Signal Orange my car before that was Phoenix Red sort of like Tangerine. I like Signal better but both are very nice.

Signal Orange...so much racing heritage.

I have seen so many new Jeeps, as Jeep has picked up on the Signal Orange Vibe, I love it?

Sorry, Just my opinion.

I think we have been watching your car as it has developed and all I can say is choose wisely! The bodywork is epic!

I would go with Signal Orange. So much GT heritage in that color...
