What color is the Expedit Bookcase?

I don't think this is one of the original colors for this bookcase from the factory so I was wondering what color you painted it and how. Did you use a primer on it? Thanks!

I bought it from IKEA in just this color. It was red. Do they not have red anymore? I didn't paint it.

Oh! Okay! Unfortunately, I can't see where you can get red anymore. But, I bought a 2nd hand one that was white and figured I could paint it. Thanks for the speedy response! The room looks great!
