Has Ferrari Ever Painted a Car Candy Apple Red?

If you are referring to Mazda's : Soul Red Crystal Metallic , I also think it looks like Candy Apple Red. I recall seeing a Candy Apple Red Mustang Shelby or Eleanor in my youth and that was a big trigger

When I first saw the Mazda in person I laughed and thought they did this better than some of Ferrari's' 3 layer colors. Looking at the Ferrari configurator it looks like Rosso 70 Anni or Ross Ferrari F1-75 is the closest.

Good on Mazda , but still not buying

 

You mean like the launch paint color for the actual car, "Rosso Portofino?"

Custom color Rosso Coburn. Created for an F-Chat member.

 

No pics of my own, but just search "rosso coburn". There's a good handful of photos (and chat) about this beautiful color.

Here's one: https://www.ferrarichat.com/forum/threads/rosso-coburn-undertones.639160/

 

Maybe Rosso Fuoco?

 

Fuoco is also very candy apple ish

 

Rosso Fiorano is close, I think.

It was like a chameleon - the color changes with the lighting. And hard to get the true color in a photo. I replaced the 355 with an F430 that is Rosso Rubino Micalizzatto, a much darker shade of red.

Attached is a side by side photo of some of the reds in this thread.

My opinion - I think that Rosso Maranello is the closest to "candy apple red". It really pops in the sun light. Rosso Fuoco is a bit darker. And Rosso Fiorrano has a bit more orange/copper tints ( hard to tell from my poor photo alone)

From left to right: Rosso Maranello, Rosso Fuoco, Rubino Micalizzato, and Rosso Fiorrano.

In this second photo I am comparing Rosso Maranello and Rosso Fuoco.

Wow I really like that...I have a Crystal Red Metallic Z06, the color looks completely different outside in the sun than it does in the garage, very unique. Wonder if that color has the same characteristics.

Real Candy Apple Red is base coat of metallic bright silver or gold then a translucent color coat (red in this case) and finally a clearcoat. Very hard to get color coat right. Anywhere it overlaps it is darker. The new paints do a pretty good job of mimicking candy colors but do not have the depth of a real candy paint job.

Since the thread started out mentioning Mazda’s Soul Red Crystal Metallic, I humbly present my MX-5 RF.

(Not the best pictures…)

Rosso Fiorano was my favorite shade of red for a very long time. Fuoco and Maranello are absolutely gorgeous.

 

Rosso Fiorano here. In person, it is actually much deeper than photographs and changes depending on the light - I’ve never been able to capture the true depth of it. Gets a ton of compliments.

This might be my perfect shade based on this pic.
