Default Rhodomine red metallic GTS on eelbay
Wow!

http://cgi.ebay.com/ebaymotors/1994-...QQcmdZViewItem

Also, it really bugs me when a place that sells $$$ cars can't find someone who can hold a simple camera still to take a picture or two. Lay off the coffee, salesman.

What does Rhodomine translate to? I added it to my website the other day and put it in as Raspberry Metallic but it doesn't translate to that on some of the German to English translation sites.

I LOVE the color combo!

Yea...looks like coral to me too.

Certainly a rare color.
Should go in the 30K's somewhere...worth more though.

thought about that color too, wish we could see some pictures of the car in the sun where coral red looks more orange.

My guess is that this one should go in the mid to upper 20s due to the relatively high mileage.

Great color....but you'd be better off buying Bigs GTS.....since its condition is perfectly documented!!

himbeer rot is raspberry red...when directly translated..so that probably fits..

rhodamine.is apparently an artificial red dye..(i've used rhodamine dye for solvent migration studies I did way back in college)...

Nice car..great price range..for now

later,

I also think correct translation would be raspberry red. Its listed as '91-93 MY 911 color.

Wow! Not only pin striping, but the ultra rare 17.5 inch wheels.

Great color combo! Looks like it needs a little TLC (new carpet, intake tubes, pinstripe tape removal, general detail), but this car has the potential to be drop dead gorgeous. I'd love to have it in my garage parked next to the Velvet Red GT.
