Default Snapped couple pics of my Maple Red TA

I posted on here a while ago inquiring about Maple Red WS6s. The factory didn't make any, but GMMG did a WS6 upgrade to this one in 2001. So, I guess this what it would have looked like if GM made it...The color wasnt my favorite at first, but it has grown on me. Hopefully the pics will come up right, let me know if they don't.

That's my favorite color of the camaro's. It looks pretty good on Trans Am's too.

I'd like it better with the older style WS6 rims on it, but I like it.

Well, I like the older wheels as well, but I probably won't spend much money on appearance stuff, except for getting the bumper front repainted.

I love that color! It reminds me of the 50th anniversary 2003 Corvette's dark red.

Thanks for the compliments. It's a difficult color to describe. When I took it to show my parents after I got it, it was kind of dark outside, and my mom kept calling it purple...it's definitely not purple though. In direct light, it has this really unique color, that the pictures have a hard time capturing. It's best to see one in person.

Yes, that would be a Mustang (see sig). It's a somewhat low miles (45,000) garage queen, and luvmeZ28 is correct, those are Nitto drags on a set of chrome Cobra Rs. The T/A is my weekend driven track ***** (needs mods)...but I do want to get the front bumper repainted.
