Very pretty car. What color red is that, is that original color? I'm thinking of painting mine red and I like that shade, is it a Corvette color or a custom?

Car looks great. I think that was the perfect light to really bring out the color. I'm no photography expert at all, but I've always heard that dusk (or in your case a cloudy day) really brings out the details in a car.
