Atomic Orange for 07
Has anyone seen the new Atomic Orange for the 07's. I went to my friend that owns a dealership and he showed me about what it would look like but did not have the GM paint chip. Does anyone have a pic of what it will look like? My wife is wanting get me another Vette for our anniversary, and we are wanting to get it in DSOM. However, that has been discontinued we found out. Whatever color it is does not matter to me. I have been vetteless for a year now. I will be glad to be back in one.

I saw it at Bowling Green at the NCM Birthday Bash. I ordered it, but as it will be on constraint until at least the week of July 24th, I changed my color to Victory Red.

Looks just like the Chrome Orange I saw a swatch of at the dealership. LOOKS VERY NICE. I can't wait to order mine. In a Vert of coarse. Thanks for the help.

I dunno guys, my 37 year old eyes just can't tell the difference in the Atomic Orange pic that is posted. It looks like the DSOM to me. Maybe if saw a picture of both cars side to side.

Yeah, but it would have a better impact seeing a whole DSOM car next to an Atomic Orange one. Looking at the Atomic Orange car, it looks simialr to DSOM to me. That small paint smaple patch doesn't have enough visual impact for my pea brain to process. If I didn't know that was an Atomic Orange car in the photo, I would immediately think "nice DSOM car!".
