Hi all! I remember a color for Mustangs back in the late 1990's that was called Rio Red. The color of my 2007 Stang is colorado red (known on the street as torch red). I was just thinking that the color of my 2007 was very similar to that rio red color. Am I right or wrong? Thanks.

You very well could be right. I had a 95 vette that was Admiral Blue. In 96, the same color changed names.

Torch red is Ford color code D3
Rio was E8
There is a slight difference.

Torch red and Colorado red are the same, Rio is different.
