Actually, photos 2, 3 and 4 are California, but yes, AZ is beautiful. If you love the beauty of the desert, AZ and CA have some beautiful places.
 
Honestly, it is a beautiful color for sure! I wanted one, but couldn't find one available.
 
My 2016 CTS-V was the same exterior color. But I mixed it up with the interior and wheels. It's nice to have options.

Does anyone know how similar the Radiant Red Tintcoat is? I currently have Rift selected on a 4BW order, but I’m staring lean more towards red, and posts like these don’t help! Love the way this color looks.

@Tall Steve, if you could only choose between Rift or Tintcoat what would it be?
 
@JTugwell ... It's been discussed on here before. I haven't seen it person, but in pictures, it looks like it goes a little orange to me. Someone posted pix of a Camaro in that color. The pix of the Escalade V is Radiant Red. Some say it's almost the same. I'd think by now there should be some GM vehicles around on lots in that color (RPO GNT).

That's a hard question... I love the infrared when it shines in the sun, but I love the color shifting of the Rift, and the Rift is easier to clean as it does not show dirt as much... If I had to do it again, and I might, I'm going Rift, lol.... (sticker edition)

Here are a couple of pics I took at the release of the Escalade V in Daytona this year.. (Radiant Red) The colors are similar but different, I hope this helps some..

That's also what I love about Infrared. It also changes so much on lighting. Deep red in the shadows, bright red in the sun, and everything in between.

I don't think it shows the dirt too much. 1500 mile trip to CA and back and, yes, it was dirty, but from afar, not that bad. The bugs on the front is another conversation.

My 1st choice in spec! Love it. I would have gotten the same but given availability issues I have the Infra Red, Satin Black wheels, Black/black seats with red belts, and no CF on order. I will post when she shows up.

I just took delivery of a MY23 in Radiant Red yesterday
