The Battle of the Matte Red Range Rovers: Ultimate Auto and Platinum Motorsports

Two great customization shops released photos of matte red Range Rovers. Both Ultimate Auto and Platinum Motorsports started off with a blank canvas: a 2013 Range Rover. Both did follow the same style, although they both used different shades of red, they used a matte finish and left the top half of the vehicle black. The end result.... I'll let you guys decide.

First up. From Orlando, Florida, we have Ultimate Auto and their cranberry red Range. This Range has been dipped in custom BASF Glasurit matte red paint with gloss red accents. The gloss black roof and accent trim break up the red and give it a nice two tone.

And in this corner, from Los Angeles, California, we have Platinum Motorsports and their Rosso Corsa Range. This Range has been dipped in custom Rosso Corsa (Ferrari Red... or at least it looks like it) paint with gloss black accents. The gloss black roof and black accent trim break up the red and give it a nice two tone.

Soooo.... which one do you like?

But my favorite quote that I've found on Luxury4play.com about the new design of the Range Rover is "the new Rover doesn't look as aggressive as the outgoing model. They definitely lost a bit of that squared off, brutish ruggedness in translation (Bernie's note: it's should have been transition). It's gone soft... like a Cayenne." However, the Cayenne has always been soft, it's a crossover.
