It's certainly nice condition and a rare beast but that aside I like it better in blue/white with the stripe. It's bizarre to request all these special features and paint and still settle for column shift. I think I'd be changing that even on an original car.

Yeah, thats a pretty well known car.....the only red one - makes you wonder why it wasn't a regular colour choice.

Yes, that is a nice color combo. Would not be have bad to clone, except for the column shift.
I always thought it would look nice to have a bright yellow early 2nd gen TA with a black stripe that fades to dark gray on the edges. With modern 18-19 in wheels.

I think it was used for a zillion other GM applications as well. It is not as rich as Cardinal red but a little brighter. I Originally chose a 2010 Chevy Victory Red and if I had it over to do again, that is what I would have went with but I am happy enough with the way it turned out.   |

Thanks, very nice, I like it… I’m seriously thinking about pulling off the bird and going with the strip (but I think I have to re spray my car a bit darker red).
