I think he means cayenne red metallic. AKA red-orange metallic on firebirds. Last used in 98 and replaced by SOM. More red, less orange and seems to be a little less metallic to it. Very nice color.

BRG - British Racing Green. I LOVE THAT COLOR. Get it off either the 95 M3GT or the Lotus Elise.



My drift car is painted with that color...I tried to clone a 95 M3GT

Although this is a stock color, I believe that a SOM WS6 is just plain gorgeous. If there was one thing I wish I could change about my SOM Z28 is the engine bay color. Considering my accent color is black I would like to have a black chassis and a black engine bay instead of the dull orange color it comes in stock. So my vote is for SOM....... Just my .02

Post 11 is red-orange metallic (aka. cayenne red metallic on camaros)

Last post on page 2 is SOM.

I'm partial to red-orange myself. It's really an LT1 color that squeaked in an extra year. The LT1's had a lot more cool colors IMHO.
