A lot of people might be biased on this one.

I personally like Torch Red the best, as it is typically shinier and brighter than the others.

But, do you like orange? Competition Orange would look SICK on your car.

I have seen some pretty nice reds out there but no clue what the name or paint code were on those cars..

However, I have been super pleased by the Torch Red ( D3 ) paint. It's beautifull in the evenings as it has a real deep red shine. it just turns heads .. If I had to pick a red I would def go with the Torch red.

Oh, and I have seen the 09 candy apple red. a bit darker so you might like that.

here's some pics so you can get an idea of the deep red shine in the evening.
