Anybody got the code and name for the best red and pics maybe? I stuck between red and black for my paint job. I don't wanna rush and just get any color.

i think the standard Super Red 3L2 is the nicest imo. but if you want a slightly darker stock color, choose 3H2 (i think it is), it's basically called Cardinal Red and was offered only in certain years for celicas i believe.

I decided to re-paint my car the red it was. I love the color of my car but forgot my paint code.
Here is a good pic of my color

What's wrong with the teal? I repainted it stock teal color and I think it looks great.

my car is 3L2 Red but i like the R29 from Tufy's car alot better it just seems like a "redder" red

i myself want to get away from "Pull Me Over" Red to a color that might help in avoiding the constant attention from the Popo's and vandals

Actually mine is sea spray (753) that pic i have is actually enhanced by photoshop. Don't get me wrong though, its a nice color, I actually didnt think so at first till I started buying stuff for it. My decision is still stuck with black or red. Red is attractive and eye catchy but black looks more wicked and mean.

I think black Celicas are very very sexy, they look "elegantly modded," or classy, if you have the right rims and such...they look like something you could pull up to a formal occasion with but still maintain that show car look...

My car is red, I think its 3L2, that's what I've been told it looks like anyway. I was thinking of painting it black to get that sort of "classy" look I was talking about and to avoid the whole "white chick with a red sports car" stereotype, lol. But I do like the red because it's so...rawr...grrr....attention-grabbing, lol....

I agree with black as well. However, C3L1CA's red looks real good. Chrysler red eh?
