I'll check on this for you monday, this may be a three stage paint.
I've painted another saturn with a very nice red and it may be the same.
Problem with the three stage is that you need a good painter and the color is more difficult to match down the road because depending on the amount of the tinted midcoat the color changes. If you get it all painted at the same time you should be ok.

i believe the code is 301N, this color is used on vettes to caddys to saturns. It is a very nice color, in the dupont paint which I spray it is a three stage paint, basically the same as a candy red with a metallic red base. Check with your paint shop if their formulas for this color are the same; different paint manufacturers arrive at colors in different ways; they may charge more for the extra material and time involved to spray this, the factory charges more for these colors also, but if they are sprayed well they do have a great effect that is hard to beat with a standard base/clear
