Original paint. Not bad at all, nevermind the fact that the colour is just yucky, hehe. Can't say so much for the interior either.

If you stand at the right angle, you can see the remainder of the original DX1 Hood Bird that someone took off... (jackass!)

Same color, but w/ some custom stuff here and there I like my color, but I never see any others that color....but im guessin its an original color. Im gonna get some of that paint that changes bout 9 different colors and putting chevy signs and/or the camaro emblem on each side like the firebirds have there bird. I also want to paint black stripes on the hood indent things. You know, where the hood curves. I think it'll look tight

Does it count if my car was repainted under the original factory warranty by the dealership? If so then I do Damn dealership put my fender emblems in the wrong place too I even still have the receipt for the repaint, it says the reason was that the original paint began to come off of the spoiler.....

Here's mine... 108K on the clock, still has original paint. The pics more than do it justice, however... up close you can see the hood is 'cosmetically challenged', to say the least! Not to mention minor plastic damage on the driver's side front bumper, or the ding next to the passenger side taillight. It'll do for now, tho!

I have 1991 metallic dark red on my Formula and it looks only a couple years old. What is the name of the color?
