Meh.

Torch red is the red for Minivan owners feeling froggy enough at purchase to forego taupe or periwinkle for something with more "zest".

TR is WAY too orange for my tastes. I go for the more blue reds like VR!!

Well, I liked the look of my Victory Red coupe...until I pulled up alongside another red sports car. It made my car look burgandy...which is not what I wanted Torch red should be the only red on a sports car

BOB'S C6

I did not care for it when I saw it in person at the museum,just did nothing for the C6 lines as the engineers stated back in 2004 when decideing C6 colors. Victory red is a good color of red.

Torch red is an amazing cop spotter color. You can see it coming from a long way off. I love the color but I don't think I want that kind of visability if you know what I mean.

If a bright red is what you want, Torch Red is a good choice. Not my cup of tea, I vastly prefer my Monterey Red.

But you know, that's why they offer choices. I'm glad they add some new colors from time to time, still wish they would bring back a nice dark green for a year or two. I like the new Grand Sport, and TR looks good on it. Maybe a bit TOO Ferrari-esque, if anything, and that's not bad company for a Chevy.

*cough* you mean grand sport haha.

And personally, I like the torch red...BUT I like victory red more.

Hmmm, I have V. Red and when it's in the sun light it is ORANGE enough for me. Tourch red is way to orange but it has a lot of Bling.

I had a '06 monty red for 6 months. I look back at the pictures and wonder how in the world I ever bought that car! In the shade it was a very deep beautiful maroon color. In the sun, too much of a wine/candy color....yuck. Crystal red is a little better though not much...
To each their own........

From what I have seen so far and that has not been much I prefer the Victory Red.

Our C5 was Torch and our C6 is Victory. I saw the original Torch C6 when it was at the Museum. So...
When the light is dimmer (cloudy or early/late in the day), Torch looks a little better. During normal daytime lighting, the Torch looks too orange and a little washed out.
I wouldn't refuse to buy a new Vette over the issue, but I definitely prefer Victory.
