I know that dealer. TK is a good guy. I bought some parts from him recently.

Oh, and I would drive it. Would love a 964RS in that color...

Not seen it in the flesh but from his various avatars I believe screamingflatsix has a turbo in that colour.

Love the unusual colours, on most other cars they would look awful but they seem to suit the 964's lines. Even a 993 Turbo in this colour or something like mint green would look hideous but not the 964.

Something just a bit odd about that turbo not the color. It cant be a 3.6 turbo and be a 91 but something else just looks a bit off.

I'd love to have a turbo in this color with black wheels and around 500hp.

Just go driving around waiting for the inevitable "Nice car, do you have a matching purse?!" when their girlfriend is in the car only to leave them behind staring at your twin exhaust flames.

I remember my friend telling me stories of guys driving around in Japan with pastel pink Skyline GTR's making 1000+ hp. Other people would mess with them and the Skyline would pull on them as if they're standing still.

The car is listed as a 3.3 which is what a 91 should be. As the car wears what appear to be 3.6 Turbo Speedlines, I'd guess the "Turbo 3.6" badge was added as well.

As to the colour, Rubystone Red, I like it on an RS but am not so sure about it on this car. Maybe it needs a black interior. No matter, just my preferance.

yes rubystone it is, quite popular in asia on turbo models & RS....rubystone was a "standard paint code" 89-94, raspberry was a metallic "special order"
here's a carrera rs in rubystone

Default gay pink!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Yeah,

I do have a stern rubin rot turbo, and its a different colour on most cameras and days but in the real world more purple than pink!!
The history of rubystone red is its a motorsport colour and has been used on 3.0 iroc cars and various rsr3.8's
I have 3.6 wheels, rsr rear tail, rsr seats and interior and a bolt in heigo cage my car was a project for me to make a look-a- like 3.8rsr, as I cannot afford the real car.
The only thing I don't like about a rubystone porsche is when it has a light coloured interior mine was triple black.
But open your mind about the colour and you want the lowest mileage and mint condition turbo you can get, I wanted black but 33k miles made me like the pink car more and everyone has a red, black,white or blue turbo.
Oh, before you all rant at me I have a red 964 targa and a granprix white 1983 911sc coupe all bought on condition not vogue colours.


Gaz, uk pink porker boy!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
