Hey, i seem to have a thing for orange fiero's I have an 1986 GT that i bought and it is a metallic orange, although i have to get it repainted i am going to get it done the same color or slightly lighter/darker. Anyone have pics of orange ones?

Thanks

Don't they start out in life as red and become orange over the years?

sorry about the photos my cameras color is kinda messed, its like a general lee metallic orange, it used to be red

There's a sweeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeeet aero notchback, it looks like a pearl orange with silver trim... Matthian has pics of it, hopefully he'll post 'em soon... it is SUCH a "drool-worthy" car.

Here's Tod's orange 88 Formula. For you "traffic cone" lovers.

Here's Keith (Fiero Doc) Orange Fiero...................

And his North Star

I have an orange one now:

With a little bit of black too

do a search in the archives for 1FST2M6 (different car than above)

All very nice cars above... I was thinking about the burnt orange/metallic orange that GM is putting most of its new cars, I think its called Sunburst Orange but I could be wrong. Its a pretty nice colour. Seen here on the new Solstice:

Competition orange...

Ruined by glitter...

It's best if you make one of those pinhole viewers to look at it on sunny days.

That Competition Orange looks like a dead ringer for the Flame Orange on my stock '72 Chevelle. I loved that color and think it would look good on a Fiero. Thanks for reminding me!

When you paint the black rubber moldings like many of the above cars, how does it stand up to dings? Is it always chipping off (but easy to touch up?) Do the painters use flex additive and paint the moldings separately?

There is a nice orange Fiero notchback I have seen a couple of times here in Vegas.
sorry no pics only saw it twice.

what type of oranges are those i need to talk to my paint guy and see what is avaliable...Thanks!

I won't admit to my kind of paint mine is, let's just say ordinarily it's used on much bigger vehicles...

As far as the trim, I repainted it myself with Rustoleum Satin Black (the flat stuff looks chalky and the gloss is too much). It doesn't go on that smoothly so it took a few sand downs to get it right, but it's held up very well to everything from sunlight and heat to car wash scrub brushes.

I met Travis at a local show a couple of years ago (he's from GA, right?), before I even had a Fiero...he still around? I saw his car for sale in the local auto trader a couple months ago ( or one just like it).

Any idea what the paintcode or name of this colour is, it looks the same as mine .....I think?

This car was so delicious-looking, when I saw it, it almost made my eyes fall out of my head, and roll away:

I like to color orange on the GT more then I like it on the coupes.

This is the color that I am using for my car ,it is a one of a kind mix from Lamborghini and my paint man has the paint code recipie but it is very expensive at $280 a gallon but it is nice .

that is going to looks cool.

I have an "orbit orange" one... I'm told it was a color on GTOs from the early 70s. (Unfortunately, I don't have any bigger pictures of it)

Hey, I see my Fiero! It's the pearl orange and silver SE that Chris (FieroRumor) posted above. Thanks for posting the pics Chris. That was a cool show, but a HOT day. I would have posted pics but I reformatted the PC and haven't downloaded PIP again yet.

Oh, and the color is a Lamborghini color, but from a different model than the one Akimoto posted.

Later,
Dave

That's my dream orange on the Lamborghini, saw one of those at the Dallas Auto Show a week before my car was to be painted school bus yellow and told them I'd changed my mind. The orange I actually got is the closest I could get for cheap... it's not as red as it looks in pictures, but not as pale yellow as I wanted.

Here is a better shot of Keith's Car...next to mine!!!

Edit: Sorry after I enlarged the "GT picture" I can see the orange/met

I don’t mean to offend anyone……but those first few cars in the thread ……are red??

I do like the look of a orange Fiero……..

But no-one has ever called my car Orange

like i said before my car isn't red, it has a gold metallic undercoat and a bright orange on top, my camera doesn't pick up colors great that's all.

Ran into this one at Wheatstock '04:

and this one at Ed's Swapmeet '04:

The owner told me it was painted a '70's Opel GT Dust Orange, most likely a PPG paint number.

The Orange on Silver Notchback with the 3.8SC that FieroRumor posted is probably the best looking fiero I have seen yet!
Anyone know the colour?
That would be tricky to find a powder coating to match the paint I would assume

I was just about to comment on how nice that looks.

That is "L.I. Fieros" 's Fiero. The pics that Matthian took do not do the car justice. It is simply amazing. So incredibly "new" looking. He has a build diary filled with pics of how he tore it down, designed the engine mounts, had the car painted, etc...
He's a really nice guy, and I'm sure he'd respond if ya PMed him.

Color is called Yellowstone and I'd say it's yellow but it's got a lot of red in it and in some lights it looks more orange than anything...

Here's mine...

PS
Why won't the link display the photo in the thread?

Some people say mine is orange... Well actually, that's exactly what Pete said when he picked it up for me 5 years ago. He called me and said, "It's orange. . . .orange like a pumpkin. Do you still want it?" I'm still glad I said yes.
