str8six's does look similar (i've seen that one in the flesh too)... but it's not quite the same as this pic i don't think - although i suppose the light plays a massive factor...

this one is almost orangey-red...?

red glow pearl is the TVR name - appears to change shade with different lighting, here it looks slightly lighter than normal.

no, red glow pearl is too dark, i think Graham's right with Cham. Orange...

nope, this is red glow pearl, just looks lighter in that pic. look at the pic next to it in the register, same car just looks a bit darker.

eta: the video link in the register of the car (# 79) gives a better view of the colour rather than the still pics. The car at TVR Mads is also red glow pearl but looks very different in it's pics. The car at Str8Six is called 'saspberry' - not the same as red glow pearl and slightly more 'purple' than red glow pearl. Although still a stunning colour imo. Hope that's clear.

agreed, red glow pearl does seem to vary in shade in different pics etc. have a look at the first video on the register - may give a better indication of the colour. it can appear to vary from a fairly deep pearlescent red to a much ligher red - with hints of orange, as appears in that photo. It isn't one of TVR's flip or chameleon colours but it has a similar effect in terms of appearing to look very different. if you sit a chameleon orange and red glow pearl car next to each other you'd definitely see the difference in the flesh.

Not sure it is chameleon orange either - that's an orange to pink flip through yellow.

There was a new poster on here recently 'ChamOrange' IIRC who has a T350 in that colour and it doesn't match the above particularly although it's always difficult to say with these colours!

Great looking car though!

does anyone with a Cham Orange know anyone with a Red Glow and could get some pics side by side i wonder!

agree though, need to see them in the flesh - cameras (and light) can really change things...

I thought it was a Chameleon orange one, I used to have the pic as my ps3 background as its a full 1080p shot and it looks stunning, it tends to go that colour under the white artificial lighting, like a petrol station.

Just checked the register and there is now two pics of the car and the first shot shows it definatly isn't cameleon orange. very nice colour though

Thinking about it I'm sure I have seen another shot of that car wel its plates were the same and that was Cham orange

i really like the look of the '350 under petrol station light - especially at night, it almost looks smooth, really cool! (note to self, get picture in petrol station!)

While we are on this topic is this C1 00r off the register or a different car (To me it looks a different colour and from the video on the register it defo is), I sore it in stoke on trent about 3years ago and remember it being for sale maybe 2years ago, think it was the Nottigham area (middle of the country anyway).

Would of snapped his hand off if it was for sale a few months back lol

I'm pretty sure Graham V is right with the Chameleon Orange. On some low meg images, and in real life in the shade, it comes up like a flat terracotta colour. That's sadly what put me off buying one in this colour, after being mad for it imitially until I looked at one face to face from all angles and daylight conditions.
