Just wondering is the paint code in the vin number or is there another location for it?

What color is the red called, fire red etc?

The paint code is not in the VIN, it is located on the underside of the trunk lid, I believe they call it an RPO code?

The paint color is Bright Red, and I believe if you buy the little touch-up bottles at an auto store it's Bright Red 89? Double check their color matching book.

This radio station was renamed Krenzy in honor of the last American hero to whom speed means freedom of the soul. The question is not when he's gonna stop, but who is gonna stop him.

My red code is WA8774 IIRC.  It should be WA- then some number.
