Default What is this color?

As the title says, I'm trying to figure out what this color is. Yes I know it's red, but what shade of red. Any help would be great. Thanks in advance.

Actually I just found it. The car is a Tesla roadster. It looks like the paint is called Radiant Red and is a metallic. http://www.teslamotors.com/design/exterior_colors.php Now I guess the next question, can I get the paint anywhere

call a PPG jobber..... those guys can look up almost anything, and chances are they helped develope that color in the first place. Give them the year, make and model, they'll plug it into the database and check. Usually they cross-reference other paint manufacturers as well, so even if they dont have a formula they'll find out who does.

Goodluck!
