I wouldn't describe that color as orange, more copper to me; but, I'm sure our resident mentally unstable one will correct me on that.

Without seeing it in person I’d say lighting is a big part of it; if I did trade in mine I think I’d go for this, but I love my Dark Sapphire.

Looks copper to me as well, but who knows what orange looks like in Madagascar. I like it a lot more than Firesand.

Baby-**** brown isnt a colour I'd normally choose for a sportscar, but then who am I to say, with "mid-life crisis red"?

I prefer the louder firesand. I've seen this color in real life on range rovers (been available for longer on that line) and it has a LOT of brown in it. When the sun hits it there's some yellowish green in it too.
