Butterscotch color paint

Today I spotted a Che**y HHR - GMs answer to the PT Cruiser. It does have a vintage look to it, which is good as it couldn't keep up with fast traffic on the freeway and seemed to bounce around and be difficult to handle at speed.

The part I liked the best was the paint - it looked like butterscotch or copper with yellow/orange highlights. It is very close to the paint color I would like on my 59.

I looked it up on the internet when I got home - GM calls it "Sunburst Orange II Metallic."

Does anyone know anything about this color paint? Does it have a copper look to it at times, changing to orange with the light?

Mitsibushi (sp?) also has a color like that. Looks real nice. I think it comes on an Eclipse.
