I have always liked Torch Red untill I saw Mr Jeans C5, It is a fine looking Mag Red.
So I would go Mag Red over Torch, It seems everyone has Torch..

Real Vettes are Torch Red.

Carmine or Magnetic > Torch Red
TR is probably my least favorite color on these cars
I still like them, but it seems every vette you see on the road is TR.. I like to be a bit different (I own the rarest-except-for-that-gold C5 color)
