Garnet vs Red Rock
Does anyone know if the 2016 Garnet Red is the same as the 2015 Red Rock metallic? If not do we know the differences? Thanks guys and gals.

Garnet red is like Crystal red from the fifth gens and is a tri coat/tintcoat paint. Red Rock is a metallic orange like Sunset Orange and is a traditional base/clear paint.

Whats the difference between a tintcoat paint and a base/clear? Is there no clearcoat on a tintcoat?

In certain light, the RRM would look orange. I love the GRT so much better.
