Does anyone have pics of the two different red cars side by side, besides this one?


To me, the Redfire looks better in evening pictures and the Torch Red looks better in daytime pictures. Obviously you are going to be seeing the car more in the day. Also, the Torch Red looks sportier, something more of what you would see on a Corvette. Although I think the redfire looks meaner, since it is darker.


The Color Accent Package (CAP) looks great with the Torch Red in this pic. Anyone got pics of the Redfire Mustang outside w/ the CAP? I am thinking that the Dark Charcoal seats would go better with the Redfire.


It is really hard to be decisive, when you have not seen either cars in person to compare true colors. For those who have, what color exterior looks best with the CAP?

Take a look @ Amy V6's post "Rejected" -it shows the redfire next to torch red .

Also, look at som of the pre-production pics of the redfire GT it what appers to be an abandond warehouse, the shots are with the doors closed, but it may still help you decide.

I'm a redfire fan myself.... but I went with a medium parchment. The icap was a little much for my taste.

I prefer Redfire without the accent.

But remember, this is our opinion. When you actually see it in person, you might have a different opinion.

I prefer Redfire. It takes on a different glow with each type of light. Morning, Noon or Dusk, It's almost like a different color each time you see it. I think the pictures here have shown that and I also noticed it at the dealer on other cars.

I.m not a huge fan of red but if I had to choose I would get the redfire. I prefer metallic paint.

To each his own. Redfire is nice. But after seeing them both in person, I am glad I ordered Torch Red (and not just because I have an affinity for non-metallic paint). Most pictures make it look more orange than it really is.
