Tangerine is Coming

Biker1 · 9th August 2007, 11:23

Tangerine orange is coming, similar to the launch car colour due to customer request.

I will update with availability.

Otherwise see the blogg.

Biker1 · 30th August 2007, 09:47

For those that have asked, as far as I am aware all that is changing on an 08 Type S is new colours, we havent been notified of any other changes.

Biker1 · 30th August 2007, 12:17

Tell me do you think that Tangerine is a year too late?????

Would you purchase one?????

Do you think Honda has missed the boat, and the colour should have been offered with the launch?

kevin_lufc · 30th August 2007, 12:38

I would have bought a Tangerine coloured Civic, but then again I think every man and his dog would have wanted one at the time. Not to sure now.

Biker1 · 30th August 2007, 12:41

I think we will get one in here for display to test the water so to speak,

We need to get the site noticed somehow.

Lloydylloyd · 30th August 2007, 12:43

Perhaps if it was a deep dark tangerine i would consider it. The F*rd F*cus orange was/is too bright for me.
Sorry for swearing.

HappyMan · 30th August 2007, 15:07

when recently ordering our Civic we were shown the Tangerine colour and even though we liked it thought that it may have impacted on resale value and so decided against it. Plus, I am not sure I would have really liked it all that much when I got it.

So sorry not my colour!

I was disappointed when I heard that tangerine would not be available. I could have bought that colour. But as far as I read somewhere, the one on the show car was a special tone, which gave different reflection effects from different angles. It changed tones from yellowish to reddish orange depending on the lighting and viewing angles. The newcomer orange may not be the same I suppose...
And, it would be better if it was launched before the F*rd.

It is good that Honda a introducing a brighter colour for the Civic, most of the colours are dark shades.
But I think this is a colour you have to see in the flesh first

Kremmen · 31st August 2007, 07:12

It's interesting to note the upper class sound of 'Tangerine' rather than plain 'Orange'.

Some years ago Volvo did a similar trick with colour naming to increase the snob appeal.

They called it 'Safari Yellow' but if they had named it after what it looked like it would have been 'Dogs**t Brown'

babyjoe · 31st August 2007, 08:18

Well, let's wait untill pictures get out. Why couldn't they omit any of the other colours, why the gorgeous blue??? All my vehicles from moped to cars have been sky-blue.

Biker1 · 10th September 2007, 15:24

Delivery sits today at 16-20weeks on thhe honda books which basically means no actual date yet.

January will be the latest date for delivery.

We have taken an order today, I will post some pictures when it arrives.

Regards

TTDegs · 10th September 2007, 16:41

can you put a Civinfo note in it please Andy - want to meet the person brave enough to order one!

Biker1 · 10th September 2007, 16:59

Funny if it was a Ford Focus or a Fiat Punto people wouldnt think it so strange, must be a pedigree thing.

I still think it's a colour two years too late personally.

Good job we are all not the same.

Look at me I like short girls, tall girls, girls that carry a little itty bitty weight girls!!!!!

Biker1 · 3rd October 2007, 16:05

My first Tangerine will be here 19th November.

I will post pictures on the Blogg.

Regards

Dark_Arrow · 15th October 2007, 15:56

Hi all,

my first post, and here's the (so far) first picture of a tangerine orange Civic

.

Picture was taken @ 2007 Frankfurt Motor Show (IAA).

Enjoy.

madasadad · 15th October 2007, 16:19

Nice one, a much more 'mature' orange than I had expected. I like it.

medicsource · 15th October 2007, 17:06

Not too shoddy, but wouldn't be my choice of colour!!! Saw another Orange Ford ASBO today.... Not a good look!

czechplastik · 15th October 2007, 19:23

I like the Ford orange
