I have Maroon on my 90 RS. My paint is faded and oxidized so I think it looks like crap. But I did see a Maroon 3rd gen around town with a well kept paintjob and I thought it looked great. So Maroon could be another shade (bit darker than the fire red). Pic in Sig

I painted my IROC with the 86 "Bright red" hue, which is the color available on the camaros and firebirds that year. I doctored it up with some orange mica.

The color is VERY similar to Viper Red, which I used on my old Firebird. The price is almost the same too. The Viper Red was $3 more than the GM color.
