At the time, I was very strict about the following rules:
1) If the car gets washed, it gets waxed afterwards.
2) No driving in the rain.
Stock paint...fresh wax job...and a good picture while on the scale for a weigh-in (2907 pounds with 1/2 tank gas! :)

This is blueskaterboy car, its a three stage laser red with a gold metallic flake, IMHO this is the nicest red I think I have ever seen. Reminds me alot of magnetic red from the c5 corvette.

Definitely Stock Vintage Red
Original 12-1/2 year old paint... imagine what it looked like brand new. Same rules as Scorpio, if washed, then waxed. If not, detail sprayed... never sees rain.

Ahhh, so many brilliant looking reds. They're all perfect. IMO, i think stock vintage red gets the win. But that SRT-10's red looks outstanding. Good luck picking.
