    Dare I order an orange R8?

    I have a red R8 on order with carbon sideblades, however; having recently seen the new Porsche GT3RS in orange, and the new Lotus Elese SC in Burnt Orange, I wonder if I should go down that route???? Or will I be left with a Lemon to sell on? Delivery in July so only a couple of weeks to change my mind.

    Hi Simon

    The red with CF blades looks stuning in the flesh and would definately be more easy to sell on if thats one of your concerns.

    Orange would certainly be more individual but TBH the R8 doesnt need such a lairy shade IMHO as its hardly a shrinking violet in any shade

    Or alternatively why don't you go for nice safe daytona grey like me

    Red with carbon would be my first pick, only cuzz I didnt know it was offered in orange. Orange would be a stunner for sure go for it.
    I just started my research on the R8 and will be looking to pick one up for X-mas. I will also be looking to re-search the orange now.

    An Orange R8 would look great with the CF sides talk about an awesome looking car. It is possible to get cream interior with these with orange stiching?
