Its the light hitting the car ferret

 

[Tenchi Masaki]

I assure you its Ferrari red

It was orange. A darker reddish orange, but definitely orange. My brother's girlfriend has a Yeti cooler almost the same color, so I sent her that picture and told her she had to get the car because it matched.))

I was right you was wrong @Tenchi Masaki

 

[Tenchi Masaki]

Why the Ferrari looks a bit orange in some settingsThe Ferrari's paint and sponsor logos are topped with a matte clear coat as the final layer. Matte clears are made up of small particles that are a semi-opaque whitish color suspended in a clear binding agent. Because of the particles needed to achieve the finish, matte clears are not as "clear" as a gloss equivalent. The particles refract some light and and block some wavelengths of light, changing the look of the underlying color slightly. This is why the problem is not solely due to camera equipment or photo editing settings.

The screen upon which it is viewed will make a difference as well. For instance, I am on my phone right now, and I use a blue light filter to reduce eye strain. Everything is much more yellow than it would appear otherwise.))

Its all Ferrari's fault really they just couldn't use normal red made it look red-orange and then decided lets call it, red. This is one of the reasons why I like Porshe. Ferrari is so elitist in a bad way.

 

[Victorique]

automotive paint manufacturers keep the the clear sparkly particles a secret but its just industrial (non edible) glitter

Ferrari is so elitist in a bad way.

They make supercars whose lowest-priced model is more expensive than what Renoir's La Maison de la Poste sold for at auction last month. Of course they are elitist.

Oh Of course they have the standard elitism expected of a supercar manufacturer but it goes deeper. They are sore losers and treat their customers like crap where contracts are concerened. Example incoming: Now none of the big three (Porshe, Bugatti, and Ferrari) can be called nice to the customer but Porshe is the most grownup about the business they are in. When the Porshe 918, McClaren P1, and Ferrari... LaFerrari were introduced It is common knowledge in the car world that when you buy a supercar the manufacturer of it make you agree to terms of use contract, or you don't get to buy the car.

This means in case of big car releases you are not allowed to turn the car over for testing. all the Supercar companies want people to think their car is worth its price tag and get potential buyers to buy their car instead of the competition. The "image" of the car matters most of all it is directly connected to the reputation of said company. This simply means they brag about how cool the car is and your a loser if you don't buy it since they know people will buy a car from different companies.

What this sadly turned into was The 918, the McClaren P1 and the Ferrari LaFerrari being released to the public after initial showoff to the press in the car world and people wanted to test the cars to see how fast they were and how they handled and so forth. This pathetically led to Porshe destroying all challengers on the racetrack by setting the record at Nuremberg, which is a big deal in car world. McClaren was so pissed they refused to release the time it took the P1 to finish at Nuremberg in a screw you to the tv shows that test and showcase supercars in this case Top Gear. All the companies care about is getting positive things said about their cars at the expense of the truth.
