I don't have the pic, but my n/a(with a TII hood) is the factory Blaze Red. It looks red in the shade, and orange in direct sunlight. I always get compliments!

Also, I have quite a few pictures of my car here:
http://www.turbo2mazda.com/pics/06-17-01/

They are close to 1 meg each, so I chose not to post them directly. As a matter of fact, I'm sure there are more pictures that you may want to check out on my webpage:

are you referring to the slight difference in red between the door and side skirts? the side skirts on a T2 are some sort of plastic and fade differently than the rest of the car. on the red cars especially its sometimes visible under the right light...you can see it on my car, kurgans, and scotts...

yep, that's the problem with cars that are painted over plastic, steel, alum, and fiberglass. it all fades different my plastic side skirts and side mouldings are slightly different from the door which makes it look weird in some pics. and my front nose is faded the most (fiberglass??)

Yes, my cars front bumper and rear spoiler look faded from the right angles. Also, since its rubber, the black trim isnt exactly black anymore. Sure its barely noticeable, but thats what you expect from a car thats 14 years old (my car).
