It's not quite that easy. There are different colors of Mag Red. Check out "our" website...

I have an 03 electron blue coupe. When I wanted touch up paint for that, they wanted the vin # of the car. The dealer checked it ,ordered it, and it matched perfectly.Apparently these unusual colors are matched by GM by vin # because there must be diffferent paint batches. The other info from Todd might help. Good luck.

There were 2 variations of Mag Red used on C5's, which doesn't help you much.
But, here ya go for paint codes:

It would either be a WA-127B, or WA-379E
