Re: just to keep everyone informed
I've always been partial to a deeper red with pearl coat in it. Kinda like a blood red.
As far as Bright reds go, I wouldn't know really what to suggest, but I'm pretty sure it would be damn sexy

Re: just to keep everyone informed
I would do just like a plain red. Make sure its smooth as shit and put a nice clear coat on it. simple is the best.
I will warn you that red paint is expensive as shit...

Re: just to keep everyone informed
It is supposed to make you wanna go faster, like in some europeen countries, they won't insure any car that has the word "speed" in the name, Mazda had to rename all the MazdaSpeed cars.

Re: just to keep everyone informed
Someone got StallOWnED trying to hotlink a pic.lol
I was just saying that red paint is expensive to buy. IDK about all the red cars being expensive to insure or whtaever, but my insurance didnt' go up any by getting a red car.
