Default Are they going to phase in Redline Red for 2015?

Have been having trouble deciding between UW with RR interior or MRM with Blk interior but I heard that MRM is being phased out and Redline Red is being phased in. Is this true?

I haven't heard of any exterior color changes with respect to MRM for MY 2015.

I hope they don't, not very impressed with Redline Red at all. I know the MRM has been around for a long while but it is still one of the nicest red colors out there today.

Is Redline Red metallic? If it is, it sort of reminds me of misano red from audi or melbourne red from bmw and I have to say those colors are just a lot sportoer than MRM. I'm not saying they need to get rid of MRM, I do love the color, but a brighter red would just fit better.

I'm not a fan of the non metallic reds, they are just too flat. MRM is a pretty sharp red, the only one I've seen that I like better is the metallic red on the new Mazda 6. It's got a little more yellow than MRM so it has a bit of a brighter orange pop to it. MRM looks a little more blue.

Im just not a big fan of the racy and bright looking reds, I like the color toned down a bit.
