    As a fellow Longhorn I was excited when Tesla showed the Model 3 early on in Burnt Orange Metallic. I wish they would introduce that color into the catalog. I was considering wrapping my X in that color. Haha.

    That would be very nice, completely unique and would, I suspect have a wider acceptance than most people would believe. There are a lot of us who subtly bleed orange ;-)

    Range Rover actually had Burnt Orange Metallic in their catalog for a while. I don’t know if they still do but the shade was nearly perfect. I already know of probably 10 Horns in my general area. Where I lived in SoCal there were many in my own neighborhood. We’re well distributed.

    Tesla was a different company back then but for their low volume handbuilt originals, we got some pretty cool colors.

    Maybe since by definition a $200,000 car is low volume the return of some unique colors will happen.

    Now that you mention it, I think I remember that color.

    You know, we're everywhere. I see lots of horns on cars up here in Seattle, too. Maybe it's a conspiracy... ;-)
