That's an OEM Honda color. Hold on.

I would imagine it's the stock color that comes on the RSX. Blaze Orange Metallic. Aka "BOM." Code is YR-552M.

It doesn't look like that in normal light.

Island Coral Pearl came on the '96-'97 Civics and it a sort of salmon color.

Okay, I think what you're looking for is Blaze Orange Metallic.

I think it's YR-552M. You can double check here. You can also google Blaze Orange Metallic to see if it is in fact the color you are after.

That would be my assumption also.

I'd agree as well. Personally, it's my favorite OEM color on RSXs.

Yea, i think it's either the stock RSX colour or Corvettes' Atomic Orange Metallic (83U).

I dig it, but I don't know if i can live with it for more than a month. It's so vibrant, it can be tiering IMO

That's it....stop right there. So, you want to paint your car this color? Can you afford the paintjob? Will you be alright with the color after a while? Okay then.

Lol, those are the only things that you should really think about. Disregard what others think if you love the color, it's not their car. Do what you think will look great to you, what will make it your car, and I'm sure it'll look great. You'll definitely get props from me!

I think it looks awesome in the right light... but too often I've seen it in person and it looks kind of dull and pale by comparison.

The OP should try to find some of the cars that came in this color (the '05-'06 RSX and the Fit).

Agreed. It looks richer in person imo.

Plus, you can still see it in person in the US if you want to too.

From the thread ek forever guy linked to.

On USDM cars it's on the color sticker in the driver's door jamb. I've asked friends in Europe though, and they have nothing like that there.

Here's another photo of Burning Red Pearl/Cayenne Red Pearl on my sister's Integra. This is brighter light though.
