I looked for it but couldn't find it. What tone of red is it, do you guys know? BTW, I saw a vermilion red mustang at a local McDonald's and that color is foking sweet.

Its Rio Red. 3 Stage Paint - One of the more expensive colors IMO.

But I thought Rio Red was more orange than what I currently have.

Could your car car be repainted, Not sure where you are seeing the E8 Edit - Pic looks vibrant Red

Ford made 3 Reds in 95 Vibrant Red, Laser Red, and Rio Red

Here are you paint codes......

Hell, I don't know. We have 3 styles down here, Illegal, Legal, and Gay. Mine is the medium(legal). It's Rayban. Got it installed in Mexico for dirt cheap close to 2 years ago. I need to go get new paper though, starting to peel on my driver's side window.

So then the first car is RIO RED? Thanks for the codes, but I really can't use them if they don't have pictures. Check out this pic of my car, it looks lighter when wet.
