Its definatly closer to spa than rio, but I think your right, could be even brighter than spa. Hard to tell from the computer pics though, because the imola orange looks like rio yellow

I wonder why they don't have that many choices over here in North America!

"New Indy Yellow" is just their name for Rio. In Canada it's called "Solar Yellow".

Just like they call "Suzuka" "Nurburgring Blue Metallic".

The US should have gotten "Indy".

New Imola Orange Pearl looks more like Rio to me.

I believe our Spa yellow was originally slated to be called "Indy Yellow" here in the U.S. But I think Tony George and the Indianapolis speedway folks had something to say about it. In Europe Spa was called Indy Yellow. So I guess that would make New Indy Yellow what we call Rio Yellow. And I agree that Imola looks more like Rio.
