The Torch Red is OK but the Redfire is much nicer in my opinion, it has the metalflake in it where as the Torch Red is more of a solid color.

Hi

The Torch red looks more aggressive, Redfire looks more laid back

They both look good but I prefer the Torch

In my opinion, the Torch Red kicks a$$. I looked at the Redfire paint before I ordered mine and didn't like the look of it. I much prefer the bold color of a Torch Red Mustang. Also, it looks awesome with the white LeMans stripes I put on it. I've gotten nothing but compliments on it.

I have the Torch... I LOVE it.

My second choice was the RedFire, but I felt it had too much "Maroon" in it.

I looked at a Redfire and a Torch Red. I got the Torch Red hands down. Redfire is nice, and has a ‘bad boy’ look about it. But Torch Red screams out “Look at me, I’m gorgeous!! You envy me!!”. It’s a real head turner, and with the black convertible top, I could drive NAKED in that car and people wouldn’t be able to tell because they’d never get their eyes off my ride.

I originally went into the dealer to buy a Torch Red GT. They had no GT's on hand except the Roush and Dale Jarrett Editions. The only Torch Red V6 they had were verts. I drove a Torch Red vert and a Redfire Coupe but wound up with the Black coupe and could not be happier. I prefer the Torch Red personally. The Redfire is just a little too dark for me. No disrespect to the other nice Mustang colors, but to me a sports car should be red, black or silver. Color is a very personal choice and more power to everyone for picking what they feel like is their best color. Any color Mustang is better than no Mustang at all.
