I had a Mag Red 2001 coupe and IMHO it's the best looking red for a Vet. I use to get compliments for even little old ladies.

I've owned alot of Corvettes over the years and I really believe that Mag Red is one of the nicest colors they ever put on a Corvette. My 02 coupe in Mag Red gets alot of attention at cruise nights which surprises me with all of the older Vettes there. The color just attracts people to the car.

This would have been much better had the thread been made into a poll...

Torch red probably gets you noticed more since it's so bright.

Put my vote down for Mag Red. He's a few shots of mine.

Thanks for the mention Bill K. I think they are both great colors, but I looked for and found my Magnetic Red II and love it. Get lots of comments about it.
