What is this color? Is it just the lighting that makes it look so good? I can't tell if it's rosy or a nice dark burgundy.

Putting a Chevy engine into a Volvo XC90 will not transform the XC90 into a Caterpillar wheel loader.

On topic, what are people's favorite P2 colors? I'm partial to the Ocean Race blue. Is there a thread already here with all the colors cataloged?
