Mike's Vibrant Red!!!


Infamous Dodge Viper Red!!!


Or the Newer Torch Red!!!



I thought I had made my mind up about going with black, but my black hood has driven me back to red. I mean, it looks awesome but it's a beeatch to keep clean. I have a hard time just with the hood, imagine the whole car. So if the Berylium is too expensive, I'm sticking to the seeeexxxxxyyyyy red, now, I just want some opinions.
Thanks

Out of those ... I like Mike's the best. But I'd need more pics of the Torch Red to make my mind up. I like the newer Performance Red also.

Michael, the ones you posted are too dark for my taste. Since I have a black rag top, I need something lighter that will vastly constrast with it.

Killin me buddy!!!! If you INSIST on lighter red, still don't go with any that you posted. Go with Rio Red....its a good compromise, and it looks killer with black!

Michael. I knew your car was like that but how did it happen. Did you buy a front clip or did some dirty painter actually think that was the right color.

I like vib. out of those...but i think it has the best picture quality. Those others need to be taken in a similar spot with similar lighting to see the true depth/gloss differences. I think its between vib and the performance red on the viper. That torch looks red/orangish to me.

I get it now. I'm also leaning toward Vib. My brother has a Rio red mustang and it's too orangish for my taste, like Nate mentioned.

That's my car, and the lighting must have been wierd when I took that pic cuz that is the brightest the color looks in any pic I have of the car. It's a little darker in real life.

On a side note, Torch Red got my vote
