Well, depending on how much direct sunlight your car sees, and what time of day/year you do most of your driving, "harvest red" would probably keep your engine cooler, although it would not be as effective as "polar white" or "brokeback pink," your temps would be lower with that color than with the "hot raspberry." Even so, "hot raspberry" wouldn't be as harsh on your coolant and AC efficiency as "melt your face black," which is the color of my car. Now that paint boils my radiator every time I back it out of the driveway...
