Crossfire Red colors are listed as Inferno Red Chrystal Pearl Coat, Inferno Red Chrystal, Blaze Red Clear Coat or Blaze Red Chrystal.
As you state the color code is PRH for the Inferno Red Chrystal Pearl Coat ('08 and '05), Inferno Red Chrystal ('07)and Blaze Red Clear Coat ('06), but is listed as ARH for the Blaze Red Chrystal for 2004 year only.
As there is a Blaze Red Chrystal color (PRH) for other cars in the 2004 year, we may assume that the ARH is different from the PRH so the Crossfires came with two shades of red, ARH and PRH.
Of course I could be totally wrong for the second time in my life.

ARH comes up as an accent color (Inferno Red Crystal Pearl).
None of it is "Wrong" as long as you end up with the formula that matches what's on the car.

Here's my Inferno (or Blaze Red) on a sunny day in partial shade. The color temperature on the camera was set correctly as they were shot in RAW format and processed in Lightroom:

I want the red the most because I like how flush it makes the back lights look and cause it sticks out. But if it had any orange tint to it (any! I hate orange) I wouldn't want it, and I wouldn't want to drive hours to see a car in a color I didn't want.

Re: Are there different shades of red?
Here are some pics of mine that might help you clear things up:
Sorry for the size but you should get a better idea about the color in the sun/shadows.
(I'll work on resizing them, sorry again guys)

Resize them? Don't bother, I like full size pictures.
Trouble is I can only see half your car.
But what is the name of the color?
I think the big difference in the colors is when it gets a clear or a pearl coat on top of the color coat, pearl is milky and clear is, well, clear.
