Is the final red NOT pearl-coat? What does the 'multi-coat' refer to, then?
There is definitely metallic flake in the new red. It may be difficult to see without sunlight, but it is there.

Is the final red NOT pearl-coat? What does the 'multi-coat' refer to, then?
My phone just connected to the car, VIN 9457. It's alive!! Delivery next week. So excited!
I don't know why everybody is singing. Unless they don't have a choice. Nothing you can do. I have a delivery scheduled for this Monday and even if I am not happy with the color, I will still get the car and will try to get used to this Red. Another reason why a lot of people are happy - is a matter of taste. Not everybody in this world has a good taste. I am not saying that my taste is better than others, but I would never buy a Red car with gray interior, but I saw a lot of people who did. What is it? Lack of taste or just preference? I saw people driving cars on the street with colors I would never even think about, but people like it. So maybe this Red is the same Good color of a lot of people.
I don't know which Red you saw, but when I saw the old Red in Lincoln Rd. Miami store a few months ago, I was impressed. The same car is now standing in Dania Beach store south of Fort Lauderdale. If I didn't see the original Red, I wouldn't be so much pissed off but when I saw 2 cars next to each other, I was pissed off a lot.

As I said before that from my point of view it's a lack of taste or preference and it's not silly. Taste is something that more than 70% of the population in the world don't have and it's proven. I already have a few people who are disappointed as I am with this color. So I am not alone and nobody will convince me that the flat medium red ( Bright wise ) color is better than pearl red with flakes that I saw on the floor of the store when I saw it the first time in Miami. And finally why did Tesla bring to all Shows including Geneva in Europe the old original Red Tesla S and selling us a different car. I don't think it's fair. And finally what's the most frustrating that Tesla guaranteed me when I saw the color of the sample in the store that it's a mistake and the real red is the one that I saw in the store. Why did they lie to me? I would pick up a different color and now I am stuck with 4 days before delivery.
Alpha! I was standing next to 2 almost identical Red cars. Old and New. It has nothing to do with Signature Red which is Maroone Red. They look similar but the old one looks brighter and pearly with flakes and the new one is flat and a little darker. I hope now I explained in details.
