Rebel 1:Best color ever on a Vette
Well, it's a very nice color, and the best you can buy right now,but I'd have to say, Monterey Red really tops it. Just put two cars side by side, and you'll see what I mean. However, your car looks great. Good luck with it and enjoy many miles with it.

Monterey red is beautiful. I saw a new one at Kerbeck in I think 2006. I loved it.
