There isn't. Red and Black are the same price.

Go red 
There is a small extra charge in painting it red because the extra time/cost involved in it

I voted black, as I prefer the "Stealthy" look, but why stop at red......why not cover the damned thing in rhinestones??? 
I'm reasonably sure it would be available on Ebay that way!!
