what's wrong with the color red it is now? (aside from the rust, etc).[/b]i wanted a metallic red that was a similar color, but a little flashier and easy to buy. t-red or "sangria red", as the focus people call it, is a cheap off-the-shelf color that looks good.
the original color of the car is Damask Red, which is a solid sort of half-maroon, half-red color. you can see it best on the inside, behind the dash. the color on the exterior is not original and is pretty washed out. i should just go with the original Damask Red, but i would really like a matallic mix. we'll see...
and now the convetible i am getting is pale yellow, which i hate! so that will end up British Racing Green or Navy Blue with Tan interior if i end up getting it restored.
