Not a lot when they are all new....
Pimento is more tomato or pillar box....
Vermillion more tangerine....
Flamenco is in between....
I've had panels of all 3 colours on the same car. From 10 feet its hard to tell....

Having had to paint Russet onto many cars back in the day, I can vouch for this! In fact it is my considered opinion that EVERY car had a different shade! No matter how much paintwork was required, I only ever ordered a half litre of colour since I knew that by the time the paintshop had finished tinting it to match, i'd have enough to paint the whole car!
