I had the Patriot Red on my 95 Z and it was actually a Maroon/Burgandy color didn't resemble any real "red" you would think of. I liked it real well since you don't see as many Z's that color and it was easier to keep clean than this Black car.

Cool

Yep, red is red. Patriot red is maroon. I guess GM thinks they are being fancy by calling it Medium Patriot Red Metallic instead of just "maroon". LOL!

Here is a picture of my patriot red Camaro
