Congratulations. Very nice colour. Mine is Pewter Silver(Desert Silver to some folks). I like yours. It looks like it is not red. What colour is it? :lol:

Pewter and Desert Silver are different colors.

It's Paprika Red. My first choice was black, but I saw this baby and fell in love.

Three comments:

1. Nice car!
2. Your tires look a tad low.
3. Sure am glad I live in a state where we don't have front license plates installed! :lol:

Actually, it IS Desert Silver. The dealer who tried to 'stiff me' on the price called it Pewter silver, which is a strange combination, as Lynn notes. I bought the car finally from the guy who actually knew the car's colour--I guess!! Nice colour and doesnt show dust or dirt!
