Anyone have their car painted torch red??

I worked on a red 2000 vette at work tonight, and after some searching, found out that it is torch red. Does anyone have their 3rd gen painted this color? I think it is just the color I am looking for. It not light, just deep enough, but not too dark of a red. I can't find the RPO code on this color though. Anybody have it? Thanks, Paul Moore

My '96 Monte Carlo is torch red. I can get the code later tonight if someone doesn't beat me to it. Is the code you need the paint code a painter would use to match it during a repaint? I think if you told your paint supplier you want Torch Red, they should be able to mix it for you, shouldn't they?
