I can tell you where NOT to look, Ford's build and price on their own website. I'm pretty sure this is the most misleading representation of all the colors:




If only it actually looked like that.

Same with Guard, where it looks like Dark Highland on the configurator.

Having seen it in person, I would say these are most accurate to what CO really looks like:






In the shade:




You can see from this last picture how half the car is in sun and half in shade and it changes the color from salmon colored to more red-orange depending on the lighting.

I think the orange would look a whole lot better if it was closer to a copper or metallic look.

I think the CO looks like a "tomato red" does that sound right? It's a red with a hint of orange to me.

Not really, having seen it in person it is very orange. Mriley's first picture there is actually the one I took. Much like yellow, it can be very difficult to photograph.

From my garden, Red (Beef Master) & CO (Sun Sugar)If the CO was closer to the Flashlight or Sun Sugars, I would go for it.

Haha, I love this forum. The flashlight is killer and what they need to release.

I would describe it as tomato soup red.

A nice color, but not orange enough for me. :)

Nice size tomatoes. Mine are turning out smaller this year.
