Here are some photos of the Cajun Red Tintcoat.
A color that is new for 2017.
Bottom photo is of a Bolt caught in the wild in Canada on a cloudy day.
Second photo is of a Chevy Cruze in Cajun Red in the shade to compare.
The top is of the Chevy Cruze in the sunlight with German American skin tone and white tape for white balance to compare.

I ordered my Bolt in Cajun Red.

I already ordered with this color but was feeling a little nervous about it. Some of the pics make it look like an odd cherry color. Your pics are reassuring.

Lol. I think anyone who has bought a new car can relate to the small moments of anxiousness over the colour:). Been there....

No kidding. Especially with intense colors that you've never seen in person. Photos and paint chips are not to be trusted. I've owned three "red" cars in a row. The first two turned out to be more burgundy/ketchup colored. They looked okay, but they were not red. The only real red in the bunch was the Mini's "Chili Red." That color is now so popular you can only get it with an options package. Having been burned before, I got over my temptation to choose Cajun Red and went with the safer Arctic Blue.
 
I ordered mine at Quality Chevy in Escondido, CA. My salesperson was terrific. While he had no Bolts on the lot he did show me most of the colors on other vehicles. I was hot on orange in photos but less enthusiastic when I saw it live. Ended up going Arctic.

Gonna be hard to be sleeper in the Cajun Red. That'll get noticed. Glad you like your choice.

Nice colour choice:)
 
Here's the Cajun Red Tintcoat on my Bolt up on the Angeles Crest Highway outside LA by about 35 miles. NIce day for a drive. Good to see some freaking moisture up on the mountains for a change.

Thanks for posting. I have literally never seen Cajun Red anything, even though at least one other Chevy model is supposed to have that option. There were none at the auto show nor at any dealer I had visited.
