For the first time since it's been painted a month ago I sprayed it down and ran a microfiber over it. Lookin' sweet now!!

That Magenta color sure looks sweet on your car. Does it seem to be a deeper shade than factory, or is it just because it is brand new paint?

It probably seems deeper because I didn't get the clear coat finish. Then again, the original paint had faded enough to where it wouldn't have matched anyway.

Looks great! The first convertible I test drove was that color. It was in really bad shape so I didn't buy it, but once I drove one I knew I wanted a vert. Congratualtions!

I think the only Geo emblem this car will have will be the spacer between the taillights.

david came by this afternoon in the purple vert to pick up some parts i just couldn't bring myself to throw away. good parts, i just have no need to keep a lot of them in my garage any more.

in person this paint is really good and it makes the car "pop!" it looks good up close and dyn-o-mite going up the road. ;)

Looks great. Makes me rethink my rustoleum paint job idea. Mine needs body work first though. Would like to have my front end straightened out before I stick the money into paint.

On a side note, I had a '94 S-10 that was Raspberry in color from GM. Looks a lot like that color. Your vert looks much better though, nice work.
