FWIW, Toyotas in general have very poor red paint. My first car was a 1990 Geo Prizm (re-badged Toyota Corolla) and the red faded to pink on some of the body panels. However, my dad has a 1994 Integra (one of the first ones in the country) and his red paint hasn't faded much, especially considering he does NOTHING for the paint, rarely washes, never waxes, etc. My S2000 will be red (and '03 or '02), unless I can get a better deal on a yellow one.

No, not Geo Metro dude, Geo Prizm. And it's made by Toyota in a plant in California, it's just badged as a Geo. It actually had a lot of parts that said Toyota on them. It is a reflection on the quality of Toyota's paint.
