Anybody got a 2010 Ignition Orange Metallic GT?

Post by vit »

It was the original color I wanted to go with, but my wife and the adult in me talked me out of it. I kind of regret not getting it.Anybody got one?

That's the one I wanted too, but the only one I could find at the time was used and they wanted way too much for it.

HAd I known that the Vibe was coming out in orange, I would've waited & bought a '10 instead of the '09... but then I may not have gotten 0% financingWe've got a Fusion Orange G6 & love it, an Ignition Orange Vibe would've been awesome!

i can't imagine there are very many meeting that criteria. when i looked up my '10 on the gm vin tool that someone posted elsewhere in this forum, i learned there were only about 10,000 '10's made, and about half of them went to canada. iirc, gt's were about 20% or so of the models were gt's. throw in the unusual color and i imagine there are probably less than 100 '10 gt's in ignition orange in the US.

Would've been nice to have that colour choice back in '09. My choices were Red or White... or I could've spent $4000+ more for Mystic Blue or over optioned Black!!!But only a select few would buy such a flashy colour... Red hot Metallic is too flashy for most!!!! I could rock it !!!!

I would love to have an Ignition Orange Metallic GT ! The local GM dealer had a brand new '10 Ignition Orange Metallic AWD earlier this year. It's definitely a color that can only truly be appreciated in person. Pictures just don't do it justice. It's very metallicy and not nearly as dark and red looking as it appears in pictures. I would also love to have a Mystic Blue Metallic GT. Again, can only truly be appreciated in person. I have seen a Mystic Blue Metallic 1.8L Base Model and it was gorgeous (despite being dirty ) . Another color that blows my mind is Steel Blue Metallic. My mom's GT is this color and it looks amazing when it's nice and clean. I should have bought hers out from under her when I had the chance !All these wild colors are great in theory, but when it really comes down to it, to me, nothing looks better than my Liquid Platinum Metallic GT when it's all nice and clean .

Currently there are 17 2010 IOM GT's listed on Cars.com. I'll take the one w/the 5-spd that's at the bottom of the list. http://www.cars.com/for-sale/s...=2102

I thought the opposite when saw one in person the other week - pictures look much better. It should be called "Mystery Blue Metallic" - as it looks like they scraped out all the leftover paint from tanks and dumped that sludge to make it.
