I like Victory Red a lot, more so than Torch Red. When we bought our 09 Coupe, I was ready to get VR, but my wife complained we had too many red sports cars, so I got Cyber Gray Metallic, with which I am pleased. The interior is black, so eventually I went for a VR console top, which adds just the right splash of color to the car.
Now I have sold some cars (1956 MGA roadster, red and 1961 Triumph TR3A , red plus three other non-red cars. But I just bought a deep red Honda CRV to behind my motorhome, trading in a gold Chevy Cruze. The Honda Red is closer to Crystal Red Metallic than Victory red. But my wife likes it.
By my reckoning, I should be ready for another red car What do you think?
PS: Cars are in SC, we are in FL for the winter, so I cannot dash off pics of the discussed cars.
