    Here's a thought. The outside color of the car isa reddish maroon and we can only assume that is the stock color. When the cars were painted at the factory, there were times when only a light coat of paint was applied on the floors and the doors where they would later be covered by carpet and door panels. A light coat of maroon paint could look more pink than maroon. A camera flash could also make it look more pink than it really is.

    I agree with Jean. I have shot a fair amount of paint and a dust coat of maroon or magenta looks very much like pink.

    If it is a pink car from the factory......the paint code "box" will be blank and the DSO will have 6 digits.
