I liked the Torch Red on my C5 - orange red. To me the Victory Red looks brownish. When I ordered my 2006 I went with Velocity Yellow. No regrets – nice change of pace after having owned 3 red Vets. If I was to order another one in the future and Torch Red was once again available I wouldn't rule it out.

Am about to write a non-small check for a Victory Red low milage copy w/ 6 speed and Z51 and the shiny aluminum wheels.
Cars in the past black and black! It'S RED!

Another old saying...
"If it ain't red, it's just in primer!"

The quote was, "All Corvettes are red, the rest are just mistakes", as stated by an engineer during a discussion about the C5 mules and a request to paint them red instead of the normal white, and yes this is a very old thread.

I have a VR and a friend of mine has the Yellow "color. Both are great colors, however, the yellow attracts the black flying insects.

I have Magnetic Red on my 05 (avatar) and Victory Red on my 08 Impala SS. I like both. It is a matter of preference. I think your Victory and Torch Reds give a car a more "racy" look. Whereas, the Magnetic Red and Monterey Red give it a more elegant look. Out of all of them. I like my Magnetic Red. So, take your time and check them all out........
