ps: I hope its Imola-ish and not non-metallic like some of the McL
I love the colour but will there be a 2019 NSX Aura needs to do more than introduce one new colour for the NSX to survive.
Plenty more coming than some colors.
Are you just being hopeful or do you know something we don't.
I absolutely hope there's more to come and soon.
It's not just being hopeful.
Porsche's Saffron Yellow Metallic is awesome. More importantly.. they sure know how to market their cars. Just saying..........

I suspect they will go a little more gold tone, that orange seems too similar to Lambo/Mac orange and it would be nice to keep them distinct. I recolored your image a bit.

They should bring back Imola orange and offer silver painted wheels.
I love Imola and would love to see it revived but my guess is that if there's a new orange it will be an Andaro pearl (and it will rock).
I would love to see an orange in the Andaro lineup. That would be a beautiful color.
YES Orange is a winner!

We should have a poll around the orange being an Andaro color or not.
As much as I believe it would be best in Andaro, the price issue with the car that has impeded sales would point me in the direction that orange would be a regular paint and have the smaller upcharge relative to the base colors like my 130R white.

I beg to differ on that one. Valencia Red Pearl was the most popular color ordered for 2017. Even more so than Berlina Black and 130R white. Nouvelle Blue Pearl was tied for 4th which isn't bad. I think paint is an area where lots of people will spend the money for something special. Especially once you see that Andaro out in the sun.

Thanks for this data
It was interesting to see that my saddle interior was the least popular.
My counterpount (without any real factual basis) is that my bet is that many of the Andaro painted cars were spec'd by the dealers for max profit. And 56% of the cars were ordered with the CF engine cover, something you have to go out of your way to even see.
The only CF item I considered was the roof (stunning in person) and that only had a 9% take rate.
I have mentioned in the past that the only one I have seen in the wild was a Valencia and in the sun it looks like a rolling jewel.

Thanks for the chart. Fabulous info for an NSX junky..... I didn't want a car loaded up with $50K of carbon fiber, but ended up with a car with carbon fiber roof and engine cover.
I cringed at the $6K cost of the roof, but after owning it, the CF roof is fabulous, and gives the car a great look. The CF engine cover has grown on me too...... OK, back to studying the chart......

Agreed on the CF roof. I would consider that one of the best options on the car. Still bothers me how that has a gloss carbon finish and everything else is a matte finish. That is another think I've brought up with Acura numerous times.
I would agree that the Andaro Paints were colors dealers ordered a lot but I also believe they sold incredibly well. The one's mostly for sale on the market right now are Curva Red, White, or Black with very few of the Valencia Red or Nouvelle Blue out there to choose from. My favorite is still Source Silver with CF roof, CCB with Red Calipers, and Red interior.
