I of course would like it to be the same color as the GT-R, but from what I've read, it probably won't be this shade. Then I got to thinking, is the GTX1 carrying the exact shade?

In any event, I think a Valencia Orange GT/CS could look very much like a Twister if ya squint real hard!

That car looks a little squished to me. Anyone else?? I mean, you could almost say it looks shorter than a Mini Cooper.

It's a wonderful color though, I do like that color.

lolol

Everywhere its being referred to as Valencia Yellow (if I remember correctly)

And brad stated it is NOT the GT-R40s colour.

I think it'll be the same as the GTX1. The X1's stripes are Tungsten, and we know that one of the options for the 2007 GT500 is Valencia with Tungsten stripes.

I think Valencia Orange will be the GT-R color. It looks exactly like the GTX1 color also. I know this sounds corny, but the web definition of a Valencia orange "has a thin, deep golden skin." This color might be more golden than traditional orange.

I sure am not a fan of those tungsten stripes, at least at first brush.

You know, there are so many pics of the GT-R at so many different angles and so many of the GTX1 that depending on the lighting, the two pics side by side can look dead on or miles apart.
