sorry but orange is played out. Almost every car made today especially GM vehicles have some type of orange avaiable. SOM is a very nice color but I would stay black or go blue

Personally, if I were doing it in an orange, I would go with Brazen Orange Metallic over Sunset. Just a bit less red tone to it.

Either get the electron blue (theres a few pics of one with HRE wheels online) looks sooooooo sweet, or get it black but not the stock black. Go to a real good place and get the absolute DARKEST BLACKEST SHINIEST black they can possibly make. Make it such a deep and dark black that it looks like ur just gonna fall into a black hole when you go up and look at the car. The black is so black that it just sucks you into it forever. lolol

Exactly what I was going to post. That CHR on a WS6 is completely sick. Oh man, I'd do that in a heartbeat.
