I saw one of these in person, and it nearly made me puke.

if youre going for a darker red...check out GM's Aniversarry Red on the 03 vette. Its a totally new process that makes it thousands of times more mettalic. Looks absolutely GORGEOUS on my dad's convertible.

Goodfella, i totally forgot in my earlier post... i have the color for you!

a few weeks ago i was at the track and there was this motorcycle there that was this INCREDIBLE blue color... very smooth & soft... it was gorgeous. i asked the guy on the bike, and he said "DuPont Candy Blue" now i dont know what color you're thinking of, i don't see how you can have a "candy APPLE blue" but if you really want a pretty color, i suggest the DuPont Candy Blue. i can't find any pics, but take my word... it was awesome!
