Red is my favorite color, but I think Corollas look better in light colors.

yeah but i think thats a BMW exclusive color. and if you walk into a BMW dealership and ask them to paint your corolla they'll just laugh at you.
although you may be able to find a body shop that can get close, it just wont be cheap

Who gets their car painted at a dealership?

Any respectable body shop should easily be able to duplicate the color once you provide them an OEM paint code and sample.
