I am looking for a red anodized Chilli Pro 1/4" mATX aluminum computer
case.  The company that made these is out of business, their homepage
no longer up.  While there are a handful of sites that still have new
old stock for sale, I have not found one with red available.  Chilli
made these cases in nine (I believe) different anodized colors, and I
_may_ be interested in a color other than red, but not blue, grey,
silver or black.  I also am not looking for the ATX model.  The colors
that are available are selling for near the $200.00 mark, and I am
hesitant to pay much of a premium over this for a red one.  I would
_greatly_ prefer a new-in-box case - but will consider unmodded, like
new used cases as fulfillment of the question on a (*smirk*)
case-by-case basis.

Thanks for your time, and good luck.

Thanks, seizer, for your assistance.  I have seen the Enermax case,
and it is pretty nice.  It actually is likely a better candidate for
modding than the Chilli.  Unfortunately, it is the specific aesthetic
of the Chilli I am after - I don't want to mod it! :)

Thanks to all who've looked.  I will likely leave this up a week or
two longer, but looks like it's compromise time.

I've had no luck searching for your case, unfortunately. As you say,
many other colours are available, but not red. I wonder if you've seen
this alternative, though:

I know it's not the same anodized finish, and I'm not sure whether
it's fully moddable (the drive racks look suspiciously fixed, to me)
but it's a pretty nice case nonetheless.

Best of luck,
