I have a year until my lease is up, really hoping to see one in person before having to order.
SO is beautiful and not copper. When the flake is lit, it is a nice orange. Otherwise is shimmers from reddish to burgandy-ish. The interior has an orange bent and does match well, I've seen SO and SO on an M6. I think it is too much of a good thing, but that's just me. Definitely, check out the color (and the other ones) in person. It looks great with the black accents. The guys who said it looks like a penny or is simply orange, just haven't seen it in real light. As I've noted in couple of threads, go to the dealer and check out a swatch, which is about 4X6 inches, and will quickly dispel any penny fears.
