It's DOES cost extra in Canada..it just depends on your dealer (if they're wiling to absorb the cost or not)

RJT is a very classy color.

I had a tough time between that, IOM, and black.

I love seeing the RJT out on the streets, there are not to many in AZ right now and it's a pretty rare thing to see.

The extra amount to get that or the IOM is well worth the price.

It's already offered.

I prefer Victory Red, but I'm biased.

my grandmother has RJT on her 08 LTZ impala. beautiful color. still prefer my black camaro though, blacks mean.

It costs extra because it's thicker and doesn't pick up rock chips.

Somebody had to be the test balloon for the the New Government Value Added Tax or VAT, so think of it as the RJT = Red Jewel TAX. You guys are on the cutting edge of paying off the deficit, just a few more trillion RJTs to go.

On the serious side, does anyone know if the primer is an e-coat process?

According to the Ultimate Factories Camaro Episode. the body is electrically charged for both the Primer and the color coats.

Technically, It actually has an additional color tint sprayed during the process is what raises the price

My 2008 Cobalt is Sport Red Tintcoat and I swear it's the same as Red Jewl Tintcoat.
Also was a 325.00 charge on the Cobalt.
