Nice car and a definite welcome. It's always nice to hear the dealer tech's perspective, especially regarding the more experimental amongst us.

Coral Red??? I thought that was Venetian Red Pearl? Either way it's a sweeeeeeeet color (not just because my car is the same color

).

 

[Kai]

Is that the color that they had in The Saint movie?
I used to think they had the Saffron color. This is a cool color, the look can be very distinctive depends on the angle and lighting.

Coral Red= Met. Jolly Rancher Watermelon

 

[Kai]

Did someone say watermelon...man...few more weeks to the season of my favorite fruit.

;D~

 

[S.R.]

Coral Red is a fairly rare color I think, and it looks nice!

Watermelon, sounds damn good to me!

Yep, it's the same color as the one in the Saint. I know this because I have that movie on video and I keep it cued up to the point where Val Kilmer has to make his QUICK getaway in the C70. Except he has the euro spec side turning lenses, WITHOUT the amber reflector. And a different shift knob...Ok,that's bad, I know, but does it help if I say I bought the movie WAY before I got my car?

If it makes you feel better, I bought the soundtrack and play it while I'm driving....

No no no, I think that there is some confusion here. The "Saint" C70 T5 was Saffron Pearl. Coral Red is a totally different looking color.

Saffron Pearl

Coral Red

Hmm..I did think it was the Saffron color before, but the poster they had at the dealership is the coral red one.

 

[C70 MATT]

It's coral red, END OF DISCUSSION

[c70pusher]

So it's not Venetian Red Pearl?

Ok, Ok, after work today, I'm going home to watch The Saint. That'll make it official...Maybe I'll get the soundtrack too

Okay, I was wrong LOL IRL! I guess this is Coral Red Metallic, or is it Venetian Red Pearl?

Looks like Coral Red Metallic to me...

The Coral red sure looks very different under the sun. It can be deceiving, I can see why some might think it's the Saffron color.

c70pusher: Top this...I'm gonna get myself the pin they had in the movie! LoL~~! j/k...I'm not that sick yet.
