You forgot about Green--im sure its Keilder Green or something like that which i would say is the rarest colour...

The green colour is the most vial colour of them all.

Here is the official colour list and their paint codes.
There are actually three reds. Monaco which most refer to as burgundy, passion which is the bright red, and imperial which changes from a deep cherry colour to a magenta depending upon the light. Many people refer to the imperial red as burgundy as well, but when you put it next to the monaco red there is quite a difference.
I have an Imperial Red one, which you can view here:

I believe the symphonic silver does a similar thing, and in golden sunlight can have a champagne colour to it, whereas the steel silver is the flatter colour.
If my memory serves me correctly, only the "special edition" FTO came in yellow.
- Pyreness Black - X08
Monaco Red - R82
Passion Red - R71
Imperial Red - R39C
Steel Silver - A34
Symphonic Silver - A26A
Icecelle Blue / Ijssel Blue - T73
Moonlight Blue - T88C
Scotia White - W83
Dandelion Yellow - Y77C
Timber Green - G13

My steel silver FTO seems to look a different colour in certain lighting conditions as well. can go from flat silver to almost violet like. i would have loved a champange one.
BTW, I much prefer your imperial red to the burgundy colour (I have always hated maroon).

At the risk of getting beaten up by those who have a burgundy one (Monaco Red), I agree with you Rusty12
Although, when people ask, I generally tell them it's burgundy, as it's a lot simplier to explain
