So if it's right to say "new red car." Then that's just right, not more right, can something be more right, it's either right or wrong isn't it. Is rightest a word? Can you be righter about a subject than someone else? "He's right, but you are slightly righter."
I hate grammar.

For me the answer is "new red car" but apparently it is "red new car".
Can someone help? There should also be a proper justification with the answer for as to why it is the "more" correct one because it both looks, at least to me, equally right.


I think "new red car" is right because it's a red car that's new. Idk, it just feels right. Like, the car is always going to be red, so 'new' is the more prominent verb idk.

The "news" is "new", so it comes first. Grammarians be darned!
