Close, Burnt Orange

Demonized · 09-03-2009, 03:30 PM

Beautiful color.

Allan Gibbs · 09-03-2009, 04:02 PM

Congradulations!!!!!!

You may want to see a doctor about that smile. It may become permanent.

RichS · 09-03-2009, 04:26 PM

Congratulations!

lotusforsale · 09-03-2009, 04:27 PM

That exact angle is why I'm luke warm on the Evora styling. That view is the least attractive of the car.

jim-clayton · 09-03-2009, 04:30 PM

Congrats, looks great.

it looks really nice in person. i am critical of a few details and lines... but i didn't have those criticisms when i walked around the car.

I was about to make the same comment, not the most flattering angle.

Even the most beautiful women in the world can take bad photos.

..this is perhaps the car-equivalent

ACE51 · 09-03-2009, 06:47 PM

one of the best colors next to CO. very nice!

RoadDad · 09-03-2009, 07:02 PM

Burnt Orange is the first color that has ever made my bride

the1sen · 09-04-2009, 12:45 PM

CONGRATULATIONS ON YOUR NEW RIDE!

Seeing the car in person does wonders for it.

I also firmly believe that the color will make or break it for some people. For instance, I saw it in person in Red and Black. I would buy a black one sight unseen without hesitation right now.

You couldn't give me a red one.

Seeing it in person, and, in the right color made the whole car right for me.

Andrew will have more photos and maybe vids to put up at the end of the month... we are driving over to France for Circuit de Remparts in Angouleme. So look out for an Evora, Elise and Diablo heading over in the next fortnight!

Randy Chase · 09-04-2009, 12:53 PM

Excellent. Great color.

Andrew C · 09-04-2009, 02:04 PM

Here are some of the photos from the collection at the factory.
