Any Sunset Orange Photos

BIMMERPOST
     Featured on BIMMERPOST.com
Hey,

Did some digging and was unable to locate any photos of an individual Sunset Orange (C1X) G80/G82.

Would anyone happen to have any photos?

Yep, it's factory. I did get a aftermarket diffuser, but that was after that photo

I have a Sunset Orange on order. If you have a little patience, i will share pics when the car arrives in march.
Toronto, although having an orange hue, is a hideous color imho. I would never put that color on a car. Much rather take the money from Sunset and put it in Melbourne. Or Aventurine, which also is a superb color. Or if you don't like the copper hue from Sunset, go for Sakhir.

I was honestly asking out of curiosity. I’m still on the waitlist and as it stands my build will be frozen white unless Yas Marina blue becomes available with the late 22/23 models.

Yeah, you are of course entitled to your opinion. Just don't take that color then. Doesn't change the fact that other ppl like it.

Why is Toronto hideous and not worthy of being put on a car? It's a metallic red with an orange hue. Melbourne looks similar to Toronto but without the orange hue. Sunset is a metallic orange with a red hue. I just don't understand why one color can be hideous and another superb when they aren't all that far apart relative to the whole color wheel.

It's just a matter of personal taste. I myself find Sunset or Sakhir to be a wonderful color, but i really dont like Toronto, dunno why. Maybe because its too bright. Same for Fire Orange, alpin white or all the 50 shades of grey.
To each their own i guess.

I like it because it reminds me of the red that porsche uses. The m4, like the Carrera looks awesome in red with black accents

Yes, I'm with you, but on a darker red like Melbourne or Imola.

Anyway, not the topic of this thread. Guess no one has a Sunset m3/4 yet.
I remember there is that one guy from Turkey, who has a modified Sunset M340 with M3 bodykit. Dont remember his Insta though.

i think you will be fine with the spec you went with all red/orange colors look similar, of course they're is orange like fire orange or red like imola red. but everything in between you'll get your mix of both.
