Default Rubystone red?

Where there any Rubystone red 993's produced as I've only seen this color on Euro 964 RS models?

If there were Pics please

I have seen a 964 America's Roadster this color. Never a 993

Euro 964 RS 92 models were actually very common over here in the UK but I have never seen a 993

Thanks for the pic of the RS America as I never knew any were shipped to the US in Rubystone red

Here is one that is close.
Could be Rubystone?






This was seen at a PCA Upper Canada Region show outside of Toronto a couple of years ago.

Pretty sure that's Rubystone. Rather unfortunate about the interior.

Looks like Rubystone Red to me and that has to be as rare as a 993 Signal Green if not more so - Love it!!!!

With a rare exterior color as that on a 993 I'd forgive it for any interior color

Chaps more Rubystone red 993's please

I took those pics at a PCA UCR Concours d'Elegance back in 2006.
Someone in the club may know the car.

It was in the "spectator" parking area and not officially entered in the show.

From what I remember the car looked in "perfect “condition or close to it. I could be mistaken but I think the gentleman in the second photo may be the owner.

As for the interior, I like seeing the unusual flavors Porsche produced, so much that I have a Boxster with a Nephrite interior.

I'd rock a pink pig! 964 RS looks great in it.
