Red Candy, Looks Pink in Some Lights?

I'm looking for some help choosing colors on my new car. I've always loved Kona blue, but I'm having troubles finding the exact car I want in it. I found a car in Candy Red that is very close to what I want .I love the color when I've seen it on the car, but I've seen it on a focus a few times and it almost looks pinkish in some lights. I haven't had time to see the mustang in all lights and I'm nervous that if I buy the car I will get it home and find in some places it looks pink.

Any input would be great!

Thanks

I think that Red Candy looks great in almost any light. In bright sunshine it really pops and looks better than any other red out there. In cloudy/overcast conditions it is a darker red. After sunset it is almost maroon. One colour that I never noticed was pink.

Never seen pink also. I have been told "thats a nice maroon Mustang you got there". I've also seen a nice gold tint under some lighting conditions.

I've never seen pink in it also.

Someone called it cinnamon before.

Awesome! Thanks for the input. The times I saw the pink was on a focus and it was surrounded by snow. I wasn't sure if the focus red candy metallic tinted was the same as the mustangs.

Iv'e had my Candy Red Stang for nearly 11mo.'s now, and I love it more every day I see it.
I always get compliments from strangers about how good it looks. Get it, u won't regret it!
Good luck, Steve.

Ok thanks, I was really concerned when I was planning factory ordering the car, but now that it's too late I should have a chance to see the color in most lights before I make a decision. I thought it was maybe the snow causing the pink look, but looking at some of your locations I would imagine you've seen your cars surrounded by snow at some point.
