Ferrari Red vs Racing Green

Peinture comparison · updated août 2026

Racing Green (#1C4634) reads darker than Ferrari Red (#F70D1A), so it holds shadow in the body lines where Ferrari Red lifts them. Both render in gloss, satin or matte, so the finish is a separate decision from the colour and you can try either one in all three. Body shape, paint condition and the light you shoot in move both colours further than a swatch chip suggests. Seeing them on your own car settles it, free, in a couple of minutes.

Ferrari Red vs Racing Green: the differences.

The first difference between Ferrari Red and Racing Green is depth: Racing Green reads darker, so it hides body lines that Ferrari Red shows. The second is not the finish: both are available in gloss, satin or matte, so the sheen is a separate decision from the colour. Low light, curved panels and your own trim decide the rest, and none of that shows up on a swatch. Render both on your car and compare them there.

Ferrari Red est une peinture du nuancier Specced, référencé en #F70D1A. Tu peux le rendre en brillant, satiné ou mat : la finition change la dureté des reflets bien plus que la couleur elle-même. La forme de la carrosserie, son état et la lumière dans laquelle tu photographies changent tout, donc le seul aperçu honnête de Ferrari Red est celui fait à partir d'une photo de ta propre voiture.

Le British Racing Green est le vert profond et sourd des couleurs de course britanniques, assez sombre pour passer pour du noir au premier coup d'œil et franchement vert dès que la lumière l'attrape. Comme il vit surtout dans l'ombre, il récompense les panneaux droits et une carrosserie saine, et ne pardonne ni les bosses ni la préparation bâclée. Associe-le à un intérieur chaud et il arrête d'être une couleur pour devenir un parti pris.
