Looks like Arena Red to me.

'89-93 Carrera 2/4 color options (in Red) are;

Standard Color:
G1 Guards Red
G4 Rubystone Red

Optional Color:
G7 Coral Red Metallic
52 Cassis Red Metallic
82H Coral Red

Special Wishes;
Any damn color you want

No, definitely not arena red, that color is lighter and has more purple in it.

Looks a lot like this paint-to-sample burgundy metallic

There's also 81L velvet red.

i've seen the above color called amethyst before and it actually looks alright...for being purple and all. i believe the code is 38A or F9.

Weinrot? (wine red?)

bpp944 02-26-2008 02:48 AM
the '81L velvet red is an '88-89 carrera color.

bpp944 02-26-2008 02:53 AM
I over looked this one. 38A Amethyst Metallic, as seen on this one for sale http://www.automobilemag.com/classifieds/14/1991/porsche/911/carrera/washington/bellevue/80406109/32/index.html

it was used on 964's too. It was one of the the press introduction colors (along with white) when the Carrera 4 first came out. See the cover of the Feb 1989 issue of Automobile.

See my car below as well:

Well, I'm sold. Whatever color it is, that will be the color of my next 911.

Here is an Arena Red.

PSportoVeloce,

I was using the Porsche Red book as a point of reference, it's entirely possible that they (Porsche) had more "Reds" than the ones I listed. ;o)

Nice Car, BTW!
