    I was cruising the barchetta website in Ferrari's by serial # section / daytona spyders. I'm curious, what's the difference between the colors rosso chiaro and rossa corsa?

    Both of these reds are the popular bright reds that people associate with "red" Ferraris; they just belong to different periods in time. Rosso Chiaro is the earlier bright red color, popular in the late 1960s and most of the 1970s. It has a bit more orange in it than Rosso Corsa, which replaced it around 1980.
