To Buy Or Not To Buy Kioti CK2610

Who's on first?

I was led to believe that the Kioti colour is the same as Chevvy Engine red. ?

Close, but I don't think it is exact.. The Rustoleum color called "Lobster Red" is VERY close, just a tiny bit too much red, but certainly good enough for painting implements and such.

Dupli-Color Chevy engine orange seems to be nearly a perfect match for my older model DK.

Vince do you know if Kioti changed its orange color when Kubota changed theirs sometime in the mid 2000's? I have both of the old Kubota colors and the new Kubota orange II in some left over cans and the new Kubot II is a perfect match for my 2012 Kioti DK35se.

Wasn't there was a law suit over paint colors a while back, I'm trying to figure out why Kioti would use the same color again?
I do believe they are using a slightly different orange than the older models.

Fred, you do know those aren't tractor pics, right?
Though if they were, they could easily be a Kioti or possibly even a Kubota tractor; hard to tell without a side by side comparison, which you should be able to provide when you get your new Kioti.

I can't say the orange paint outcome between Kubota and Kioti, but I can testify to Kioti going from a dark grey to an almost black, very dark grey for the non orange sections on the tractor body/frame, etc.
