Is it really "pink" in person, or is it just the image/lighting?

It is two-tone and it changes from pink to red. In the sun, I bet it looks fantastic.

$3,300, regardless of colors, had better be part of a package that has a lot more coming with it.

As a dealer, if you order car form me in Candy Red I will only charge you $3300. Maybe some dealers are marking the color up, I'm not.

Some cars are so bad-ass, they can handle pink easily. (Panther Pink was a stock Dodge color.)
