Repainting 2.5 16V, which red to choose?
Trying to decide between firemist red or volcanic red. My paint guy said to forget almandine red because it was never that nice.

Any opinions?

Paint color is purely subjective, even your painter's opinion. Guard's Red is popular with the Porsche fans, and then there's always the colors from the folks in Maranello that really know their "red."
