Orange is one of the colors I’m considering. Your plane looks niiiice. I can’t decide between a bold color like orange or something more subtle like the gold. I’m following you on Instagram now. I wish I was closer to you so I could look at it in person, but I’m in Georgia. Your paint scheme is now in my top two.Jitters79 wrote: ↑Sat Feb 26, 2022 4:27 pm I took delivery of my 62 laaaaaaate last year, it’s dark sunset orange over anthracite carbon gray. You can search N62pz, or look up my insta (jitters79). Or just watch this video https://youtu.be/sbygqqfSsA8.
If you’re in the pnw I’d be more than willing to show it to you in person.

Re: DA62 Color Options
The plane itself is flashy, everyone says it’s extreme sexy, I agree! I think orange just pushes it that much further! I’ve since ordered the orange ford Mach-e.

Re: DA62 Color Options
Love the color - I saw that video when it came out on the Lifestyle YouTube channel. I didn’t realize it was a little darker than the current stock orange - good info and thanks. And I’m near the top of a list for a new Corvette Z06, and I’m thinking about doing that car in orange also (with either a black or gray interior). However, the red mist metallic with the tan interior also looks good. Either way, great minds think alike!
Cheers

Re: DA62 Color Options
Next time I'm up that way in my 62 (my son & family live in the area and I use Modern at KBFI), I'll ping you and we can compare paint jobs.

Re: DA62 Color Options
I had a test flight in the San Marino blue version and the colour was stunning so I chose that. It actually matches my car not that it matters. I agree for that level of expenditure I think they need the samples like you get in luxury automobile outlets.

Re: DA62 Color Options
I bought the plane without paint option. I asked a designer for an original drawing. Then a society specialized in covering printed the stickers and put them on the plane. It cost me about 1200€.

Re: DA62 Color Options
It's close enough to burnt orange for my taste! That's probably what I'm going to get. Would be interesting to have white and that orange but the white would show more grime in the long run.

But I don’t think Diamond’s orange matches either Texas or Tennessee orange, unfortunately… its much darker than both!

Re: DA62 Color Options
Exactly! I opted against white/orange on my CubCrafters build for exactly that reason ... (Law '84)

Re: DA62 Color Options
Did the stickers, I’m imagining something like a wrap on a car, affect weight and balance? Can you post images?
