I always thought Chrysler had the nicest colors. Used to use those on my
motorcycles when painting. Some Fords have nice red, think Mustangs of last
few years. Even the new Chev trucks have a Basic Red and have for years!
It's the Clear Coat App that makes or breaks most of the modern colors. The
color paint looks like Primer till Clear Coated.
