Not Porsche. Predominant color for Porsche is an admixture of silver/gray/charcoal. Red is fairly uncommon for Porsche, as they want to make sure they don't fall into the 'Ferrari' trap. A repaint to red is also quite uncommon, except maybe in the very old restoration cars where they can go back to the chassis paint and do it all over.

Might depend on the model and era. When I was shopping for a used 911SC the predominant colors were black, red, silver or white. I have read that when dealerships bought inventory these colors were considered safest based on what sold the easiest. Guards Red was very common and cars were often repainted in this color. I was looking for an interesting color and had no success. Ended up buying a black car and doing a color change.

The US market rejected this car (low offers) so it's heading back to Germany.

Quick side question: how does one go about "correcting" a COA with Porsche NA? I strongly suspect that they have the wrong exterior colour on file for my car.

Call Porsche COA people and tell them to look deeper into it. They will check what they have on file in Germany to corroborate the story, and will change the COA if the info confirms the error.

...and drooman, you clearly have a gift for spotting undervalued 928's. If I empty a box of toothpicks on the ground, will you be able to instantly guess how many?
