    I was reading the latest (for the US) Top Gear magazine, and flipped through the article of Schumis farewell ... and lo and behold, there was a pic of an Orange FXX. I don't know if it was the picture, or the lighting (maybe it is actually yellow), but it definitely looked orange. Has anyone else noticed it? Is there an orange FXX? If so, pics please!

    You will find pictures on this site somewhere. It was actually red but covered in orange vinyls to protect the bodywork and jazz it up slightly for a racing session!

    The Orange FXX owned by Michael Bareither is actually Red, but is raced with Orange vinyl coverings in relation to "Solar-Direct", which is the company he owns in Germany. Orange seems to be the company color, and am assuming he covers the car for advertisement purposes.

    There is a Ferrari 'fact of the day' website (NNO posted a thread about it a while ago) and it claims that the FXX was re-painted orange. I'm not sure what to think of this as I thought it was a vinyl?
