Default Probably the last Precision Red Poll

Now that PR is dead and is going to be rare, how many see things as a time to change in their order and how do you feel about the change?

I like PR and have grown very fond of it. The fact that I will have something that few others have, is a huge plus.

I like PRed, the shade doesn't look like every other red car out there (which I think VRed might). It's a shame that Chevy can't offer both colors.

Went to the local dealer today and looked at a truck that had the Victory Red paint.

WHAT A JOKE!!!!!

This color will make the C6 look like cheap chevy compact. GM spends all this time and money to drop Precision Red over Victory Red, which still looks red/orange in the full sunlight. This was the main reason that Torch Red was dropped. Looks like GM only listened to the Torch Red Lovers the last several months.

Just letting off some steam....

Bruce, wander over to C5 General and look up the guy doing those DIY vinyl collector's edition stripe kits. Something similar might look decent in a darker silver or silver-bronze or pewter.

I've got a Silverado and I don't like VR. If I can't get PR I'm switching to MR.
