Sunset Orange Metallic is correct. NBM stands for Now ***** Matter. And sometimes Navy Blue Metallic.

I don't know why everyone's playing like color doesn't effect performance.. studies have shown that 65% of the time, NBM is faster every time!

NBM BEEEEITCH!

Everyone knows that Pewter is the fastest color.....NBM is what guys settle for when they can't find a nice black F-body. And SOM is so rare around my area that even if I owned one, I would not see it. Pewter is the most badass color because all pewter cars come with a cam that is made from melted Mr. T chains....B. A. Barracus, Mr. T chains.....look it up on the search key, type in ICEMAN is TIRED

Just for reference, all the SOM cars came with a cam.

It was the stock one though.

I think all colors suck. The fastest cars are the colorless ones.
