Have both, love both. I still have a problem with an orange colored car being called carousel red...oh well that's why I never got paid the big bucks.

LOL, the old "an orange car being called red" topic again.  I agree with you Bob, that GTO is way more orange than red.  I remember a few years back when I had some discussions about Franklin Mint's '57 Chevy Hardtop.  To my eyes it is orange, but it's listed as red and most folks chose to debate that I was wrong in calling it orange.  Bottom line is, it is more orange than red, regardless of what General Motors called it back in the day.  I'd say the same is true for the above GTO.  That issue aside, it is a beautiful model and one I'm proud to have on my shelf.
