Iceman,
I've been trying to figure out what color it is (was), for a long time. My new camera doesn't capture the color accurately. Here's some more pictures that are closer to what it looks like. I think it's cherry red, but everytime I brought it in to a Porsche Dealership, they comment on the unique color.

Same color as this?

No sunroof but steep asking price as noted in the discussion on this car.

Hope your eye heals well, Glenferd. And may the surgeon done some topnotch stitching on your face.
It's good the 928 is so wide with wide door sill. Not like some cars where you can
lean on the window while driving.

Ernest (NYC) Probably get pulled over if I drive with a helmet on.

Ernest, I was listing it on Ebay, but after the accident I couldn't figure out how to cancel the auction, so I bumped the price up to 50,000 so nobody would bid on it.

Holy Cow !!! Good time to sign up for that car control course.

Seriously, they are a different animal in the rain. Glad you are OK, but don't be surprised if you get a little shakey in a couple of days. That would be normal. Take it slow for a while and God bless.

I knew it!! When I first saw your picture I was thinking deja vu. The velvet red/ white interior looked very nice.

I think the the color is Caissrot(sp?). A guy here in town as that color and affectionately names his car Rosey. It indeed is a rare color.

Was wondering where all these special red 928's were coming from.

Glenferd. Get that head and eye all fixed up.
Then I'm sure lots of people here will help you go 928 shopping.

Hope you didn't get a concussion too bad.
Had one in high school and the headache and nausea just sucked.

I got a concussion a year or so ago from a fight, I guess I wandered around my neighborhood for several hours before walking home and sitting in the shower....

Actually, Cassis is a lot more... well, uh, pink actually. Named after a rose wine.

Wow. Hopefully the insurance will pay well. Sorry to hear about your loss. That is a very cool color.
