Firestorm vs Lightning Red

Can anyone tell me from in-person viewing how the Scion FR-S red compares to the subaru brz red? Same or different? Thanks!

There's zero difference, they're both the exact same paint colour using the exact same paint code. Only one has a Scion name and one has a Subaru name.

Lightning red looks the same, but it makes the car faster.

Ha! Best answer right here. At first I thought Firestorm was a girl, but that would be FireSTAR...

Came out of an electronics store today to find a very, very clean Firestorm FR-S embarrassing my BRZ covered in road grime. But it gave me an opportunity to snap a pic side by side.

Ha Firestar was the chick created just for Spiderman and his Aamazing Friends the cartoon.

She eventually became a character in the comics.

Firestorm is actually an interesting concept as he can be two or more people at the same time.
