Could this be the new 05 red?

I totally forgot about this picture, but kbuicker posted it so it just clicked in my head. This was the TL A-Spec from SEMA I believe, and it definetly is a red that IS NOT the current 04 Redondo Red. Rumors have been going around that the new color would be called Ruby Red Pearl, and I think this color is a pretty good reflection on the name... so do you guys think this might be the new red the 05 TL will come in?

Looks like his sig, boss. Guessing he himself drives an anthracite TL.

By the way, I love my redondo red!! I'm surprised they're getting rid of it (if rumors can be believed).

If that photo is accurate I'm glad I have Redondo Red. The red in the photo is too orange. Hey, it's all a matter of taste......

I actually would have preferred somewhere in the middle... more like the red on Acura's website--the Redondo Red that isn't that close to the real color. But I do like the color of my car.

cool!

I do like the red, and Redondo Red is tops on my list right now.. should be interesting to see what colors Acura comes out with... in the past they've added grey combos.. so we'll see if they try something different.. maybe another blue like the blue in 03...

Now that is considered to be "too orangy". Not the Camel interior. There is absolutely no comparison.
