Alas, wasn't enough to spoil the otherwise amazing drive!

Good stuff. Here's an old pic of my car sitting in the driveway. If you squint at the mountains in the background you can see the section of the BRP where the road collapsed in Roanoke after some heavy rains a couple years ago. They're in the process of rebuilding it finally...I miss being able to take the BRP home from work!

A quick shot my wife got from the finish tower.

There's not one bad angle of this car .... or this color.

If you look early in this thread, there are some comments about SO being "dull," as in literally dull, especially in low light. That's very far from reality. SO pops in virtually all light, it just changes from fire orange to bronze orange, depending on the lighting.

Sunset Orange might not be for everyone, but it's definitely not dull.

Find it really difficult to properly bring out this color when editing

Sunset Orange owners have some work to do. This photo thread is only 28 pages long, compared to 78 pages for Hockenheim Silver!!!

Guess there are just far fewer SO M2Cs out there.

At least you guys have a thread, lol. The powers that be decided LBB wasn’t worthy of its own M2C thread

It's because we don't need to post pictures to justify our grey car. 😉

Color is just right and the 1/2 inch wider RT660s cover wheel gaps a bit better visually on stock suspension.

I recently purchased a 2021 sunset orange M2C (manual) with a GTS hood. Anyone know of the car? Originally from Ohio/Nebraska area. I mean this color is rare enough along with the GTS hood to possibly find history/previous owner...
